In bizarre news, a man from Arkansas, who is believed to be 107 years old, was killed during a shootout with a SWAT team last night.
According to CNN, authorities in the area received a call about an aggravated assault at a household, where two victims of Monroe Isadore were led out.
The site reports:
When officers approached a bedroom where Isadore was hiding, he fired through the door, authorities said.
None of the police officers was hit by the gunfire. They retreated to a safer area and called for additional help, including SWAT officers who started negotiations with the suspect.
SWAT officers slipped a camera into the room where Isadore was holed up and saw he was armed with a handgun, Price said.
After unsuccessful negotiations, officers slipped gas into the room through a window, he said, and Isadore fired rounds at them.
Once police approached the door, the reports state that Isadore fired off at them, which is what caused them to fire back.
The police shootout killed him instantly after an unknown distraction device was used.
We pray for the victims of the suspect’s assault, as well as Isadore’s family.
