"Mr. Randy Davis to me was a nice guy," said Valles.

"Shots are ringing out, what do you do," said Valles.
That's when Chris Curtice with the Fresno County Sheriff's Department says a deputy opened fire.
"Mr. Davis yelled I'm going to kill you and ran towards the deputy," said Curtice.
When the deputies gun malfunctioned after one shot, another deputy opened fire killing the already bloody Davis who deputies say had been cutting himself.
"Right here, it all ended here in front," said Valles pointing to the street.
