Special Deputy Sheriff James Harris was shot and killed in Plantersville while attempting to serve a warrant on a wanted subject.
He had been deputized by a sheriff's deputy who asked him to assist with the arrest. They encountered the man chopping wood. When they told him he was under arrest the man grabbed a shotgun and opened fire, striking Deputy Harris.
The other deputy returned fire as the man fled. The man remained at large until being arrested in Pensacola, Florida, in December 1893.
