BAY MINETTE, Ala. — The Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate an officer-involved shooting Sunday evening which left a Foley man dead.

The Foley Police Department received a 911 transfer of a domestic incident in progress about 6:30 p.m. at the Homeport Lounge in Foley. The suspect was identified as Mark Martin Everson, 55 years old, of 18178 Keller Road.

The complainant stated that Everson had said that he was going to burn her residence to the ground, according to a press release from the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office. A vehicle description was given out to the responding officer, Sgt. Dempsey Hunt.

While responding to the call, Hunt passed the suspect’s vehicle traveling east on Keller Road. Hunt turned around on the suspect vehicle and conducted a traffic stop at Keller Road and State Highway 59.

Hunt ordered the suspect to turn off his vehicle, then asked the suspect to show his hands numerous times, the release stated.

The suspect exited his vehicle with a high-powered rifle, and was ordered numerous times to put the gun down. The suspect pointed the rifle at Hunt, who responded by firing several shots at the suspect, fatally wounding him. Everson was transported to Baptist Hospital in Pensacola where he was pronounced dead.

The incident was recorded Hunt’s dash cam. That video will not be released at this time.

The Foley Police Department is conducting a separate internal investigation to determine if any policies or procedures were violated.

A sheriff’s spokesman said there was no apparent wrongdoing by Hunt.

The investigation will continue and be presented to the Baldwin County grand jury for review.
