Suicide

About 1:44 p.m. deputies were sent to assist the California Highway Patrol with a hit-and-run traffic collision with injuries. While deputies were responding, the crew of a sheriff's helicopter spotted a fleeing person running through a field near the collision. The helicopter followed the man to a home where he reportedly forced his way in. As deputies responded to the home, the man allegedly fired a weapon toward the deputies. Police eventually entered the residence and found the man dead from a self-inflicted gunshot.
