Suicide
Officers tried to stop a wanted man around noon, when he fled to a nearby gas station. He encountered an uninvolved citizen, police said, telling the citizen he needed to borrow a phone because of a domestic incident. The man took the man home and allowed him to use his phone. The man admitted that he was on the run from police. The uninvolved man left the home unharmed, but the fugitive remained inside the house. A Crisis Intervention Team, which includes social workers who specialize in mental illness was called in to assist. The standoff ended around 7 p.m. when the man was found with a fatal, self-inflicted gunshot.
