“Officers started life-saving measures and requested Fireplace/Emergency administration providers to reply to the scene. Fireplace/EMS arrived and took over medical care of the suspect. The suspect was pronounced deceased on scene a short while later,” in response to Laurie’s Police Chief Mike Nienhuis.
