Aurora police said a man was shot and killed by an officer during a domestic dispute Saturday.

Authorities said around 6 p.m., officers responded to a family disturbance in the 15800 block of East Arkansas Drive near East Mississippi Avenue and South Chambers Road.

Police said one man was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries after officers responded to a domestic disturbance between a husband and wife. When officers separated the two, the husband went to the garage, retrieved a handgun from a toolbox, and allegedly pointed it at officers, prompting at least one officer to shoot the man.

Sunday morning, the department said the man died of his injuries.

The officer is now on paid administrative leave, per agency policy, and the shooting is under investigation from the 18th Judicial District Critical Incident Response Team, as well as Aurora police's Internal Investigations Bureau.
