A man has been fatally shot by FBI Agents and local police during an attempted arrest in Palomino Creek in the early hours of Wednesday. Lawrence Grano, 19, opened fire on agents and police officers as they arrived to arrest him at his Palomino residence and was killed when authorities returned fire.
Mr. Grano, who was the subject of an undercover FBI investigation, was implicated in a criminal conspiracy to commit identity fraud, as well as manufacture false badges and identity cards. He was targeted by investigators from the FBI's Montgomery office after an undercover agent was successful in infiltrating his criminal scheme.
Several devices including a printer and laptop computer were retrieved and removed from the residence by agents.
