Steven Kiley

Suicide

Trooper Nicholas Clark and two deputies responded to a call that Steven M. Kiley was armed and suicidal. Kiley, a school principal, was barricaded in his home armed with a shotgun. He exchanged fire with the officers, shooting and killing Trooper Clark. Kiley was later found dead in the home from self-inflicted gunshot wound. An autopsy of Kiley determined that he died as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. He also sustained a gunshot wound from police to his chest, which would have been fatal had he not taken his own life.
