A shooting Monday morning left an 82-year-old man dead.

Capt. K.T. Hart said Tuscaloosa County sheriff's deputies responded to the 3500 block of Hargrove Road East around 6:45 a.m. Monday after receiving a call about a shooting. When deputies arrived, they found Archie McDaniel, 82, had been shot.

He was pronounced dead on the scene.

Hart said at a press conference Monday morning that McDaniel had thrown out some of his son's items on Sunday night. The son, who has not been identified other than being 40 years old, came to retrieve those items early this morning, thinking his father would not be home.

When he arrived, McDaniel was outside and confronted his son with a gun, threatening to kill him. McDaniel then fired, and the 40-year-old son's face was grazed with a bullet.

Upon hearing the shots, another son came outside. He and his wounded brother tried to talk to McDaniel and "de-escalate" the situation, Hart said. McDaniel then pointed the gun at his other son.

The 40-year-old, who was grazed with a bullet, then fired at his father. "[He] had to shoot. Shoot to protect himself and the others that were there," Hart said.

Paramedics treated the 40-year-old on the scene. Hart said charges are not expected. "Everything appears to be justified."

"There have been some issues with his health," Hart said about McDaniel. "Perhaps that came into play with his judgement."

He said, "It's nothing I can comprehend. I feel for that family."
