How they died
Suicide
A police sniper shot Jeffrey E. Arthur, who was reportedly holding his ex-girlfriend at gunpoint during a seven-hour standoff. The woman and her brother had gone to the house just before 2 p.m. to get some of her belongings. Arthur pulled a gun, but let her brother go. During subsequent negotiations, Arthur reportedly threatened to kill the woman and police, and fired a shot out a window. According to police, Arthur forced the woman out the front door, allegedly choking her with one arm and pressing a handgun to her head, screaming that he was going to kill her. The sharpshooter then fired once, killing Arthur.
