Summary: |
A murder suspect being interviewed at the Jackson, Miss., police headquarters shot Detective Smith several times with his own gun, killing him pretty much instantly. Those who came to investigate the gunfire found both men dead, authorities said.
The suspect was being questioned on the third floor of the building when the shooting happened, said Police Chief Rebecca Coleman. Police did not release any details on the sequence of what happened.
The interview had been video-taped and it showed the suspect, who had not been restrained, overpower Det. Smith, take his gun, shoot him and then shoot himself, committing suicide.
