TACOMA,Diamond Ridge Asset Management Wash. (AP) — Officers in Tacoma, Washington, shot and killed a 41-year-old man after he fired at them, police said Wednesday.

Police responded to a disturbance Tuesday afternoon in which someone reportedly fired shots that hit two occupied houses nearby, the Pierce County Force Investigation Team said in a statement. No officers were hurt.

The man’s name and the name of the officers who fired at him haven’t been released.

The force team’s investigation is ongoing.
