Hagaman said George Wyatt Ligon, 58, and his wife, Michelle, 61, were killed, and the shooting suspect, Isaac Alton Barnes, 32, died at the scene. Barnes was Michelle Ligon’s son and the man’s stepson.

“I’m convinced that the attitude of the suspect was such that he was planning this, not particularly at the officers, but possibly the public in general,” Sheriff Hagaman told The Associated Press. “The officers, they thought they were going into one situation, and the perpetrator, the suspect was there.”
