An unidentified man invaded a home in the east side of Dothan, and held two people at gunpoint for several hours before stealing a vehicle and fleeing the scene yesterday afternoon.
Once police were notified, a high speed chase ensued leading them to the intersection of Prevatt Road and Lakeside Drive.
The getaway vehicle had a flat tire and rendered the suspect unable to continue running from the police.
The suspect then aimed a gun at his head and pulled the trigger. The suspect was taken to Flowers Hospital and died just after 5:00 p. m. yesterday.
Police are withholding identification of the suspect pending notification of the family.
Watch WDHN tonight at 5, 6, & 10 p.m. for an update on this story.
