As the deputies searched the home one brother shot at them multiple times, wounding three deputies. Deputy Baldwin and Deputy Rogers were both taken to a hospital in Pine Bluff where they died while in surgery.
A posse of several hundred men, including 200 Ku Klux Klan members, searched for both for several days. No further information is availble.
