The Iron County Sheriff's Office says Cedar City police fatally shot a man who allegedly pointed a gun toward them.
The Sheriff's Office said the shooting occurred Monday after officers responded to a call from a woman who said her husband was threatening her and her adult son.
According to a statement issued by the Sheriff's Office, the officers asked the man to move forward with his hands visible and the officers fired multiple rounds when he approached "while pointing a handgun in their direction."
No identities were released.
The Sheriff's Office said a multi-county task force is investigating the incident.
