Jackson County man shot and killed outside of Brownstown PD

A Jackson County man was shot and killed during an incident Wednesday morning outside the Brownstown Police Department.

Sgt. Stephen Wheeles, spokesman for the Indiana State Police Post in Versailles, says that 53-year-old Barry Rucker, of Brownstown, was shot by police responding to a report of domestic disturbance outside the station at Poplar and Walnut streets. That argument reportedly involved Rucker and an unidentified woman.

Rucker was later pronounced dead after being taken to Schneck Medical Center in Seymour.

The names of the two officers involved in the shooting have not yet been released. Network Indiana is reporting that the officers are on administrative leave pending a full investigation.
