SANTA ROSA, Calif. (AP) — A man who reportedly shot at people in California’s wine country killed himself Friday after a car chase, authorities said.
Reports came in shortly before 11:30 a.m. that a man was shooting at people in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County sheriff’s Deputy Rob Dillon said in a video.
No injuries were reported.
Some people described the suspect’s vehicle, as a black Dodge truck, and deputies found the truck and tried to pull it over, leading to a chase that last about five miles.
Dillon said deputies finally managed to stop the car with a PIT maneuver, which involves bumping the car in a way that makes it spin out.
“The suspect shot himself when the truck came to a stop,” Dillon said.
The man was pronounced dead at a hospital shortly before noon. His name wasn’t immediately released.
Other details, including what prompted the shooting attacks, weren’t immediately available.
