Investigators have not yet disclosed the exact circumstances that resulted in the use of deadly force.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"643\" data-end=\"813\">After the shooting, law enforcement officials discovered two weapons in Dunford&#8217;s truck. However, it remains uncertain how these weapons played a role in the altercation.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"815\" data-end=\"1043\">The investigation is ongoing, and the OSBI has urged anyone with information regarding the incident to come forward.
