Neighbors identified the man who was killed as 44-year-old Robert Moore. Moore was a mechanic who was moving out of his rented room inside a home in the 28000 block of Lilac Road when San Diego County Sheriff's deputies arrived on Monday.
"He freaked out," said roommate Edward Belford. Belford said the deputies were present to make sure Moore was keeping his promise to move out before turning himself in for an outstanding warrant for DUI.
Paul Lefevre told 10News, "He just suddenly lost it."
From his front yard, Lefevre said he could not see everything that happened but he could hear it. Lefevre said Moore shouted expletives and told deputies they would not take him alive.
Witnesses said Moore grabbed a pair of pliers before taking off across the property, jumping a fence and coming face-to-face with another deputy.
"Basically, he attacked the officer," said Belford. "He grabbed the officer's baton and went at him and the officer did what he had to do."
The deputy attempted to use his Taser but it is unclear whether he was able to fire it.
San Diego sheriff's Lt. Larry Nesbit told 10News, "Eventually, the deputy attempted to strike the male with his baton, which also appeared to have no effect… At that point, the suspect gained control of the deputy's baton. The deputy fired several rounds, striking the suspect."
Neighbors say they heard five shots fired. One told 10News he was concerned for his family after hearing the gunshots.
"You know when you hear gunshots… I mean, you don't know what to think… especially for my kids and my family," said a neighbor who was only identified as Marcelo.
Paramedics rushed Moore to Palomar Hospital, but he died on the way to the hospital.
Now, neighbors are asking themselves why Moore acted the way he did.
"I wish it had ended differently, but I'm glad that the threat is out of the neighborhood," said Lefevre.
The deputy who fired the shots will be placed on routine paid administrative leave. Homicide investigators and the district attorney's office will conduct their own investigation.
