Two sheriff’s deputies were among five people who died Wednesday in a grisly ambush and standoff involving a barricaded shooting suspect at a home in North Carolina, officials said.
The suspected shooter allegedly killed his mother and stepfather inside the home and then opened fire on deputies who responded to a welfare check at the residence in Boone, news station WCNC reported.
The 13-hour ordeal finally ended after the shooter died in an apparent suicide, an official with the Morganton Department of Public Safety told The News Herald.
The two deputies who lost their lives worked for the Watauga County Sheriff’s Office, officials said.

The suspect continued shooting at other law enforcement officers who tried to approach the residence, he said.
One bullet hit a police officer who was wearing a protective helmet and was not seriously wounded.
-
Deputies arrived at the home around 9:44 a.m. Wednesday for the welfare check after an employer called to report one of the homeowners did not show up at work and was not responding to phone calls, the sheriff’s department said. The family members’ vehicles were parked outside the home when deputies arrived.
“Upon entering the home, two Watauga County Sheriff’s deputies received gunshot wounds from an unknown individual within the residence,” the department said in a statement.
Yes, it's true, AMERICA NEEDS MORE GUNS!
