Around 12:40 a.m. on Monday, October 21st, 2024, deputies responded to a tense welfare check at a home on Angel Road in Cameron, New York. What started as a routine call quickly spiraled out of control. Outside the home, 50-year-old Alan Hoag confronted deputies, shouting aggressively before escalating the situation into violence. Hoag opened fire with a shotgun, striking and damaging two patrol vehicles. Forced to retreat, deputies set up a perimeter and called in crisis negotiators and the Steuben County SWAT team. Over the next 12 hours, negotiators worked tirelessly to convince Hoag to surrender, but tensions mounted as Hoag made chilling threats of mass killings and declared his intention to leave the home armed and dangerous. By 2:00 p.m., Hoag's actions intensified. He began loading weapons into his vehicle and attempted a daring escape. Driving through fields to avoid police roadblocks, he stopped at another residence, trying unsuccessfully to enter the occupied home. The confrontation hit a boiling point when Hoag reversed his truck toward deputies, slamming into a patrol vehicle. Deputies opened fire, striking Hoag and one of his dogs.
