How they died
Suicide
About 4:30 a.m., Cordele Police officers were dispatched to a residence in reference to a disturbance involving three to four adults and two children. While investigating the incident, officers encountered LeJune Cobb with a handgun. Cobb and the officers exchanged gunfire inside the residence. The officers fled. Three adults escaped, with Cobb and the children remaining in the residence. Police began negotiating with Cobb attempting to remove the children. After some time, the children were safely removed. During continuing negotiations, at least one more exchange of gunfire allegedly was initiated by Cobb. Eventually, police entered the home and found Cobb had received a single fatal gunshot, which was determined by autopsy to have been self-inflicted.
