Man Wounds Three Cops Before Shooting Himself

"LAKE CITY, FL — Authorities say a man opened fire on police outside his Florida home on Northwest Irma Street, wounding three officers before he barricaded himself inside and committed suicide.

"There was a standoff for several hours. Sheriff's Sgt. Ed Seifert says a tactical vehicle entered the home around 8:25 p.m. and found the gunman dead. His name wasn't immediately available.

"The wounded officers were taken to nearby hospitals, where they were in good condition.

"Lake City is about 60 miles (96 kilometres) west of Jacksonville."
