MILLER COUNTY, Mo. — A man was shot and killed Monday evening during an apparent home invasion near Brumley, according to the Miller County Sheriff's Office.

Deputies were dispatched around 6:30 p.m. on July 13 to a residence on Big Oak Lane after receiving a report of an alleged home invasion and shooting.

According to the Sheriff's Office, the caller reported that her ex-husband, who was allegedly armed with a rifle, kicked in the door and entered the home before being shot by a male occupant inside the residence.

When deputies arrived, they found a 35-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound. Emergency medical personnel responded to the scene and pronounced him dead.

A thorough investigation was conducted at the scene. Once the active investigation is complete, the case will be forwarded to the Miller County Prosecuting Attorney's Office for review.

The Sheriff's Office is not releasing the identity of the deceased at this time due to the ongoing investigation and out of respect for those involved.

Authorities said the incident was isolated and there is no threat to the public. Additional information will be released as it becomes available.
