Officials say 26-year-old Tyler Walk of Marinette was fatally shot by 76-year-old Manfred Eisenheim of Pound, who they believe may have suffered from mental illness.

A few hours Eisenheim shot Walk, Eisenheim was shot to death by officers.

The sheriff's department received a call from Walk at 10:09 p.m. He was going to his family's cabin in Pound and reported a man with a gun in a car outside the cabin on North Fifth Road.
