The screams and cries from 24-year-old Kaldrick Donald's family could be heard as a hearse pulled away Tuesday afternoon with his body inside.

Wayna Ward, family friend said, "I felt like he shouldn't of got shot like that, not shot down like a dog in his own house."

Early Tuesday morning Donald was shot and killed at his home on Cornelius Harris Lane.

The Gadsden County Sheriff's office tells us they had received a call from Donald's mother saying her son needed to be taken to a mental hospital.

Once the officer got to Donald's house, he and the officer got into a fight.

Investigator Ulysses Jenkins of Gadsden County Sheriff's Office said, "The police officer arrived, a struggle ensued and from that point during the altercation and suspect is now deceased."

Authorities are still investigating the incident, saying their thoughts are with the family and friends of both parties involved.

"Our hearts and minds are with them during this time, it's a very troubling incident but we're doing everything we can to support the officer and the family," said Jenkins.

The officer, who's name has not been released was also injured during that altercation and taken to a near-by hospital.

The Gadsden County Sheriff's Office says the officer was released from the hospital this afternoon.
