The AR-15 rifle was the type used by the Forest County SWAT team, of which Peterson was reportedly a member, though Crandon Police Chief John Dennee told reporters his office had not confirmed whether Peterson had used a gun issued by police.

Shots were fired on both sides. Peterson was killed. J.B. Van Hollen, the state attorney general, declined to say whether Peterson died by shots fired by police, or whether he committed suicide.
