MIDVALE, Utah — Police have told KSL that the standoff in Midvale has ended. Police said the suspect involved in the standoff, a 26-year-old man, died from a self-inflicted injury.

Police told KSL TV‘s Karah Brackin that the standoff lasted about 12 hours. Police said the situation originally began with a call about a suicidal man in his car.

The situation escalated, police said, after the man allegedly rammed into a police car, fled from officers and barricaded himself in his home at 8555 South Monroe Street.

After hours of negotiating, police said the man died from a self-inflicted wound. No other injuries were reported.
