CCSO said its Internal Affairs Division is also going to do an administrative review “to ensure all agency policies, procedures, and professional standards were followed.”

The Sheriff’s Office is in the process of notifying the next of kin for the person who died, so their name is not being released at this time.

Additional information will be released when it is “available and appropriate,” CCSO said.
