    "A 107-year-old man was shot dead in Arkansas after exchanging gunfire with a SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) team. Local authorities say the centenarian was killed after he refused to surrender."

    " Having failed to reach an agreement with the old man, officers fed gas into his room through a bedroom window, assuming Isadore would be left with no choice but to surrender.

    The die-hard old-timer began firing rounds at the SWAT officers instead.

    The officers broke down the door to the bedroom and threw in a distraction device.
    Despite this, Isadore shot at the entry team, whereupon officers returned fire, shooting him dead. "

    Strewth, if they had waited a bit he may have died of old age in the meantime....or maybe he preferred to go the way he did....
