Officers tried to get Andrade to surrender for about two hours before they say he began cutting his neck with a knife and making statements that he wanted police to kill him.
Andrade was shot when he reportedly raised a rifle toward officers and went back inside the bathroom.
He was later pronounced dead.
Police say the shooting remains under investigation.
