Additional officers established a perimeter and attempted to negotiate with Puckett, who had positioned himself at the rear of his residence, armed with a handgun, a rifle, and multiple magazines of ammunition.

Body camera and drone footage of the incident were released by the EPD, providing visual accounts of the events leading up to the shooting. Prior to the incident, concerns had been raised about Puckett's mental health and potential for violence.

According to Carr’s wife, a shot suddenly ripped through the house and her husband dropped, shot in the head by someone outside who had fired into the home. Police had gotten a 911 call from an unknown party about a domestic disturbance. Police further allege that they saw Carr holding a gun and felt forced to shoot. Carr’s widow stated that she was advised by her attorney not to discuss the gun and domestic disturbance events in more detail than is stated but that her concern is that her husband was killed in her home in front of her by an unknown assailant who had been outside of the house unbeknownst to them. Carr had a history of PTSD from military involvement, was known in recent months to consume alcohol and cope in a noisy manner according to his wife who disputes any need to shoot him, particularly in the manner as it happened.
