UPDATE--Robert Hensley, 39, was shot outside an auto sales store in Celina along East Market Street on Wednesday afternoon.
People who work in the area tell us walked up to the garage with a gun. But those who knew him say he was nowhere near threatening.
Drew Harner grew up down the street from Hensley and until today, they were neighbors.
"Seen him last Saturday night playing pool. Good mood. Seemed like everything was fine," said neighbor Drew Harner
When Celina patrolman Andy Regedanz responded to the scene, he shot and killed Hensley. Now detectives are trying to figure out why.
Beth Kohn watched the scene unfold while working at the Subway nearby.
"It's just shocking. We were talking. It could have been us. It's literally just right across the street." said Beth Kohn.
We're told Hensley lived with his parents in Saint Mary's and he was making plans for his own place.
Residents of Celina were shocked to hear Officer Regedanz was involved. They say he was well liked by everyone. The officer is currently on paid administrative leave.
