-- A man was shot and killed by police in Gary, Indiana after he emerged from a house with a gun following a standoff, Indiana State Police said.
Officers saw a man in the doorway of the house armed with a handgun, Fifield said. They tried to negotiate with him briefly themselves, and then contacted a hostage negotiator and a SWAT team, Fifield said. The negotiations failed, and the man walked out of the house with a gun pointed at his own head, Fifield said. He walked to a car parked in front of the house and got in, Fifield said.
