\nA man was killed in a hotel late Thursday night in an incident that involved three Louisville Metro Police officers.<\/p>\n
According to Police Chief Paul Humphrey, a man in his 30s fled from a domestic violence scene with shots fired on Parthenia Avenue to a hotel in the 500 block of Phillips Lane. No one was hurt at the first scene.<\/p>\n
Humphrey said officers located the man at the hotel and attempted to call him out of the room. A woman eventually exited the room.<\/p>\n
Humphrey said the suspect fired at officers; three officers returned fire. SWAT was able to deploy a drone and observed the man deceased inside the hotel room.<\/p>\n
Humphrey said the man was shot once by officers and also sustained a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.<\/p>\n
The identities of the suspect and officers involved were not released. The officers were placed on administrative leave, per department policy.<\/p>\n
Humphrey said body camera footage of the incident will be released within 10 business days.<\/p>\n
Humphrey did not specify which hotel.
