According to the sheriff's office, Hyatt's stepfather, Crain, showed up to his home located in the 2100 block of Country Road 3790 with a nine-millimeter and a .40-caliber pistol holstered on his hip. 

Hyatt told the sheriff's office that Crain had allegedly began making threats against him and his mother, who was not home at the time. Crain allegedly threatened to shoot himself and Hyatt. 

According to the sheriff's office, Hyatt said he tried to deescalate the situation as he feared for his life and his mother's. Hyatt told authorities that Crain turned to the doorway and accidentally dropped the nine-millimeter pistol he had in his hand. This is when Hyatt reached into his nightstand to grab his personal handgun and fired twice at Crain, striking him in the back and armpit area. 

Hyatt told the sheriff's office he then secured all of the weapons and attempted to perform life-saving measures on Crain, but he died.
