Mouille began driving toward the deputies, and Sgt. Lance Beall fired at the cruiser once, and Deputy Jeremy Patt shot nine or 10 times. Mouille did not hit any of the deputies but did strike his mother’s home before reaching the road and fleeing.

Mouille took off running toward his home, where he took “a handcuff key out of his bedroom and removed the handcuff on his right wrist” before stealing the keys to his mother’s Jeep, according to Bennett’s report. Mouille again drove toward Patt, who had retrieved a shotgun and fired three times at the Jeep.
