DULUTH (AP) A man who refused to surrender to Duluth police during a roughly 20-hour standoff is dead after shots were fired, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension said.
In a tweet at about 6 p.m., the BCA called the incident an officer-involved shooting and said the man, who had earlier shot and killed a police dog, was dead. But the BCA did not specify whether the man had actually been hit by law enforcement gunfire.
The standoff began at about 8:30 p.m. Thursday after police responded to a report of a physical domestic assault. Duluth Police Department spokeswoman Ingrid Hornibrook said officers were warned that a man inside had felony warrants and was refusing to surrender. Officers were able to get a woman out to safety.
