How they died
Suicide
At around 5:30 p.m. officers went to the home of Blaine Wright, who was reportedly wanted as an escapee from a Dubuque correctional facility. According to police, Wright tried to flee, but then barricaded himself inside when he saw he was surrounded. Police fired tear gas inside after failing to establish contact with Wright for over six hours. Officers entered the home at about 12:45 a.m. and said they found Wright dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
