LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A 61-year-old man was listed in critical condition early Friday after a deputy shot him.

It happened Thursday afternoon in New Haven.

Police say the deputy was responding to a complaint about a property dispute.

According to police, when the deputy showed up at John Hagan's home, the 61-year-old met him on the porch. That's when police say Hagan pointed a weapon at the deputy and the deputy opened fire, striking Hagan in the chest. 

The deputy administered CPR until medics arrived.

The investigation is continuing.
