At least two Victoria police officers were placed on administrative leave Sunday after fatally shooting a 25-year-old man outside of his home.
The officers will remain on paid leave during the investigation, which is being led by the Texas Rangers, per departmental policies, chief J.J. Craig said Sunday at a news conference.
Craig declined to name the officers involved in the shooting or how many fired a weapon at the scene.
Officers responded to a disturbance call about 11 p.m. Saturday in the 800 block of Simpson Road behind Academy Sports and Outdoors.
A man, who was later identified as Brandon Lawrence, was observed by officers just inside his residence holding a 23-inch machete.
