A suspect involved in a hostage situation was killed after a lengthy standoff with Carson City Deputies. It started on Edmonds Drive in Carson City around 4 p.m. on Saturday, when a man barricaded himself in a home with a baby as a hostage. Ten minutes before 9 p.m., Sheriff Kenny Furlong says the man’s behavior changed and he was making threats towards the infant. Deputies felt the child was in danger and the special weapons and tactics team shot and killed him. Sheriff Furlong says initially it started out as a domestic dispute. The man, who Furlong says is an ex-husband; went into the home and caused the dispute. Furlong says in the early part of the stand-off, the mother of the infant and two other children were able to come out of the home safe. The Douglas County Sheriff’s office will be taking over the investigation.
