Surrounded by authorities, a barricaded woman came out of the house a second time holding a handgun and pointed it at a SWAT BearCat before retreating inside again. While talking to police negotiators, she said she "wanted to get in a gun fight with the officers," Clark said. After 2 p.m., she came out a third time — this time with a shotgun. She immediately turned it on herself, put it underneath her chin and tried to shoot "but was having a hard time manipulating the trigger," Clark said. "At that time she raised the shotgun and pointed it at SWAT officers that were nearby," he said. And the snipers fired.
