"We received a call for a disturbance, so we went out there and contacted him," Sheriff Dean told RadarOnline.com. "He was quite distressed, so we called our mental heath professionals, which is our crisis intervention team."

"They evaluated him and decided he did not qualify under 5150 to be taken in. They gave him some referrals, talked to him for a while and released him. We then left the area.”

As RadarOnline.com reported, his family has been questioned by the FBI in the aftermath of the tragedy.
