The shooting was preceded by a 90-minute standoff in which the suspect allegedly fired randomly from the backyard of a home before confronting the sheriff’s deputies and raising his gun, drawing their fire.

Deputies emphasized that there was no active danger to the community; however, they warned the public to avoid the 900 block of Leland St.

San Diego police are investigating after a man was killed in a shootout with sheriff’s deputies in Spring Valley on Friday afternoon.
