Sparks police say a man apparently shot and killed himself after officers arrived at a home to investigate a domestic violence report.
The Reno Gazette-Journal reports the incident happened Sunday night at a home on Lexington Way after a woman who lives there went to police headquarters to report being battered.
Officers went to speak to the man, who answered the door holding a handgun.
Police say after a brief conversation, the man slammed the door and officers heard what sounded like a gunshot.
The man was found dead after a search warrant was obtained and a SWAT team went inside.

(NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
