We have more information about an officer-involved fatal shooting in the central Iowa town of Boone. Authorities say Officers with the Boone Police Department responded to a 911 call about an active domestic abuse situation at 620 2nd Street, in Boone.The female caller said 48-year old Timothy Wayne Anderson, of Boone, was in the house threatening her and another person with a knife.

Boone Police Chief John Wiebold says the man attacked responding officers with the knife. Officers attempted to retreat out of the home while Anderson ran out of the home at them. Despite repeated calls from Officers for Anderson to drop the knife, he failed to comply. That’s when the officers shot and killed the man.

Multiple officers fired their weapons during the incident. Six Boone Police officers are now on paid leave while the incident is under investigation. Chief Wiebold would NOT say if all six officers fired their weapons. The Officers were identified as Capt. Lonnie Hikiji, Officers Daniel Lynch, Joseph Slight, Conner McCuen, Cole Hilsabeck and Seth McCrea.

The incident remains under investigation by the Boone P.D. and Iowa DCI. The results of the investigation will be turned over to the Boone County Attorney’s Office for review.
