How they died

Suicide

Terry Galmore reportedly killed himself after exchanging gunfire with police during a nearly 19-hour standoff. According to police, Galmore was one of three men suspected in a home invasion. Galmore had barricaded himself in his apartment at around 3 a.m., and police tried to persuade him to surrender, but he allegedly threatened to shoot anyone who entered the home. Shots were reportedly heard several times during the standoff, and Galmore fired at an armored truck at one point. At about 6 p.m., police fired tear gas and flash grenades. At about 8:30 p.m., officers went inside and found Galmore on the floor with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
