Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office deputies are investigating a shooting from early Sunday in which a man was killed by a Belle Glade homeowner.

The shooting occurred at a residence on Northeast Avenue H, the sheriff’s office said. The homeowner told sheriff’s deputies that he fired in self-defense after the other man tried to shoot him.

Preliminary investigation determined that the homeowner and the deceased were at the same location that evening, the sheriff’s office said. The homeowner told deputies the other man then came to his house armed.

Crime Scene Investigators were called to investigate further. The sheriff’s office will turn its findings to the State Attorney’s Office for further review after it completes its investigation.
