A South Carolina deputy was killed in the line of duty yesterday after a suspect opened fire on him and other deputies while they were serving a warrant and eviction notice.

Authorities say 37-year-old Cpl. Andrew Gillette died after he was shot in the chest as he and other officers approached the residence in Sumter County, South Carolina. Gillette was wearing a vest while he served the warrant. No other deputies were injured, but the suspect in the incident, who has not been named, also died at the scene when deputies returned fire.

Gillette is survived by his wife and 11-year-old son, among other family members.

Gillette is the first officer in the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office to be killed in the line of duty since 1996.
