Suicide

An unnamed 17-year-old boy reportedly shot himself during a seven-hour police stand-off. At around 2 p.m., police responded to a report of a suicidal person and found two adults outside the house. According to police, officers then heard several shots coming from inside and called in SWAT. The boy's family said he had a history of mental illness and might not have been taking his medication, and that he'd previously attempted suicide, police said. The boy reportedly shot himself at around 9 p.m. after officers threw a phone through a window to better communicate. Tactical officers entered the house after hearing the shot. The boy died at a hospital early the next morning.
