The woman was taken into custody early on Wednesday in Goetzville, Michigan, where she and her husband were residing with their two children.
The man, known as Giovanni McNab, was present at a residence in Goetzville when the U.S. Marshals Special Operations Group attempted to serve a warrant for the abduction of the two children.
McNab opened fire, injuring one of the deputies, according to officials. The injured deputy was transported to a local hospital and is currently in stable condition.
This marked the beginning of a lengthy standoff between McNab and the U.S. Marshals. McNab barricaded himself inside the house with the two children and refused to surrender.
Later that night, the Marshals entered the house to discover McNab deceased and the two children unharmed. The children were placed under protective custody.
The U.S. Marshals received assistance from the Chippewa County Sheriff’s Office, Michigan State Police, and the FBI’s Detroit Field Office during the operation.
