How they died

Suicide

Police responded to a domestic disturbance around 1:07 a.m. A female caller said she and her son were in the home with their male roommate, Sperry, who had a handgun and was threatening them. When officers arrived, the woman was able to hand her son off to police through a window on the second floor of the home. She was able to leave through the front door. Shortly after 6 a.m., police say they heard a gunshot from inside. Around 7 a.m., they entered the residence and found Sperry dead with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
