JOHNSON COUNTY —The standoff that started Friday involving federal law enforcement agents at a Kansas apartment complex and included an exchange of gunfire finally ended Saturday.
Law enforcement eventually entered the apartment and made verbal contact with the suspect who shot himself. He was pronounced dead at the scene, according to John Lacy of the Overland Park Police Department.
U.S. Marshals Service and the FBI attempted to serve a felony warrant around 5 p.m. Friday at the Villa Medici apartments in the 9600 Block of Rosewood.
As the suspect drove toward the complex exit, federal agents stopped the vehicle. During the attempt to make the arrest, the suspect fired shots toward the agents. The agents returned fire and the suspect was injured. The suspect ran from his vehicle, entered his apartment and barricaded himself. Police have not released the suspect's name.
