A Houston County man is in the hospital after a Houston County Sheriff's Deputy shot him during a stand off.

A press release says deputies responded to a 911 call about a domestic disturbance around 6 p.m. Saturday at 1204 Houston Lake Road.

When they arrived, the release says 61-year-old David Clayboss had a weapon in his hand and they asked him to put it down. When he didn't one of the deputies shot him and he was taken to the hospital. No one else was hurt.

The release did not say if they charged Clayboss with any crime, but the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has been called to investigate since an officer was involved in the shooting.

The Houston County Sheriff's Department asks if anyone has information on this incident to call the GBI at 478-987-4545.
