F.B.I. Kills Man in Standoff
VANDALIA, Mich., Sept. 3 -- A campground owner facing drug and weapons
charges was fatally shot by an F.B.I. agent tonight after a four-day
standoff, the authorities said.
The man, Grover T. Crosslin, 47, was shot and killed after he pointed a
rifle at the agent, Sheriff Joseph Underwood Jr. of Cass County said.
The situation began on Friday when deputies went to the farm after
neighbors said Mr. Crosslin was burning buildings on his property, which is
the target of civil forfeiture proceedings.
