A bail agent in California who illegally carried a firearm has been arrested on suspicion of murder after allegedly breaking into a Palm Springs man’s home, attempting to take him into custody, and fatally shooting him in front of police officers who arrived at the scene.

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department told the Palm Springs Desert Sun that the victim, David Spann, 33, did not have any warrants for his arrest by law enforcement but was wanted by the bail agency. The killing took place inside a gated condominium complex shortly after 1:45 a.m. on Friday.
