William Diego Morrison

Suicide

Troopers said they went to the duplex after receiving a report that the man had assaulted or was threatening to assault his 18-year-old girlfriend. Officers standing outside the door told William Diego Morrison to come out but he refused and waved what looked like an assault rifle. The young woman, her 5-month-old son and a friend had already escaped from the home. Morrison walked toward the officers with the rifle. Morrison opened fire, and troopers fired back. He was found dead a few hours later.
