Investigators with the Sheriff’s Office determined that Foster was in the process of forcing entry into a side door of the home when the homeowner fatally shot him.

According to a statement released by Van Zandt County Fire Marshal/Emergency Management, “The subject shot and killed was the suspect in the arson fire being investigated by the County Fire Marshal. The County Fire Marshal, along with the investigators with the Sheriff’s Office and Justice of the Peace were able to link the subject to the fire by physical evidence found on his person.”

In addition to the arson charges, Foster was also a registered sex offender. He was convicted of sexually assaulting a child back in 1999.
