Sheriff’s deputies in Southern California have shot and killed an armored man who opened fire on them with an assault rifle when they answered a report of a fight at a home.

The Sheriff's Department says the deputies contacted a suspect at the front door but he shut it and opened fire from within the home. He was shot and pronounced dead at a hospital.
