A man with a knife confronted Kern County deputies responding to a domestic disturbance and was fatally shot, the Sheriff’s Office said in a brief statement Friday.
The man died at the scene Thursday evening at a mobile home park in Tehachapi, about 40 miles southeast of Bakersfield, the statement said.
Deputies found a male victim suffering from multiple stab wounds that were not life-threatening, the office said. The victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
Homicide detectives responded and took over the investigation.
