The witness and passenger thought that the officers were going to help the man and was surprised when they heard shots.

Other witnesses said they saw the man flailing his hands in the air.

None of the officers were injured.

The name of the 22-year-old man has not been released.

State Route 159 was closed in both directions for approximately eight hours and has since reopened.
