ST. LOUIS, Mo. (AP) – Authorities say a St. Louis police officer who was shot
in the head while responding to a shooting on the city’s south side has died.
Twenty-nine-year-old Tamarris L. Bohannon had been with the department for
nearly four years. A second officer who was shot in the leg Sunday was treated
and released after the shooting around 6 p.m. in the South Grand neighborhood
near Tower Grove Park. The gunman barricaded himself inside a home and police
negotiated with him for nearly 12 hours before the 43-year-old was taken into
custody Sunday morning. Police have released no details about his arrest.
