Mexican national killed by deputy

A sheriff's deputy shot and killed a Mexican national following an altercation in which the man was wielding knives, a sheriff's official said Monday.

The man, who was not immediately identified, was shot shortly after 11:30 p.m. Sunday when he ``advanced rapidly'' toward deputies at an apartment complex, said sheriff's Sgt. Don Manumaleuna.

The man had a knife in each hand and refused to back down after being shot with a Taser gun, the sergeant said.

His brother, who was also shot during the incident, was taken to a hospital in stable condition, Manumaleuna said. It was not immediately clear whether the brother was shot directly or hit by a stray bullet.

The deputy involved in the shooting had been interviewed by homicide detectives. He was expected to be reassigned back to field work after an examination by a psychologist, Manumaleuna said.
