The Nicholas County deputy sheriff, Tom Baker, was killed Friday night while responding to a domestic disturbance in the Birch River area around 5 p.m., Sheriff William Nunley said Saturday. Baker was struck in the back by a bullet.
Police arrived at a camper and made contact with two men who came and talked with the deputies, “but at some point the suspects became agitated” and ran back inside, Nunley said in a media release.
Baker was shot and another deputy, Corporal J. Ellison, was hit in the leg. Ellison was treated and released from a hospital.
