The deadly incident occurred less than six hours after a Rochester man was killed in a motorcycle crash.

Officials say the victim was a 14-year-old boy who was a passenger in one of the two pickups that collided Tuesday evening.

Sanderson was charged with four felony drugs counts, two possession and two sale and a count of being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Officials say he fired multiple rounds from his gun during the stand-off.

There were no injuries among the three adults and six juveniles involved. Jesse Thomas, Rice County Sheriff was glad all were wearing life jackets and says the Cannon has a lot of debris in it.

The man was 70 years old.

The Rice County Sheriff’s Office says the incident is a reminder to plan for a sober ride and not to drive under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

One of the reasons that the small portion of the video was released according to Sheriff Thomas was to offer transparency in the investigation.
