Authorities release video of a fatal shooting in Tucson of Jacob Dryer after an hours-long standoff

PRCIT said 27-year-old Jacob Dryer died at a local hospital after an hours-long standoff at a home near Broadway and Kolb.

The incident began around 10 p.m. when officers were called to the home in the 7400 block of East Calle Merida.

The TPD said officers were responding to a domestic violence incident at the home.

Two victims were able to escape the home and the hours-long standoff began.

The TPD said officers were told Dryer had access to firearms, a history of mental health issues, and had been drinking alcohol.

Dryer refused to communicate with officers for hours and could be heard breaking glass and racking a shotgun.

Dryer came out and appeared to be trying to get into a vehicle. That is when the TPD used K-9s and less-than-lethal tools to stop him.

Dryer then ran back inside the home and refused to communicate with negotiators. Several hours later, he came out and allegedly pointed a firearm in the direction of officers.

That is when an officer shot him. No officers or other community members were hurt.

The officer who discharged was Officer Kyle Frank, a 16-year veteran of the TPD.

PRCIT said a shotgun and a hunting were found near Dryer and, several types of ammunition, including shotgun shells, were found inside the residence.
