A 14-hour standoff ended with a large explosion and the death of James Alexander, a wanted man. It started at 1 a.m., when sheriff's deputies arrived to serve a warrant and were met by Alexander, who was armed with a gun and explosives. By noon, negotiators had made no progress in coaxing Alexander to come out of his RV. Shortly after 2 p.m., the negotiations broke off. Then, a large explosion shook the RV, and it was reportedly consumed by flames within seconds with Alexander still inside.
This record exists so that James Alexander, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
