What do you think?
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - Sedgwick County authorities have identified a 43-year-old man who they say shot himself during a standoff at a motel.
Police on Saturday identified the man as Ramiro Rosete Jr.
A Sedgwick County deputy stopped a vehicle driven by Rosete late Thursday and discovered that Rosete had an outstanding warrant for suspicion of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.
Authorities say Rosete fled when the deputy tried to arrest him.
Deputies later learned the man was staying at a motel, where he barricaded himself inside.
SWAT team negotiators convinced Rosete to surrender, but authorities say that shortly after the agreement, a single gunshot was heard from the suspect's room.
