There, the suspect <a href=\"https:\/\/breaking911.com\/18-year-old-dies-of-self-inflicted-wounds-after-shootout-with-police-in-ferguson\/\">produced a silver revolver<\/a> and began firing shots at the officer&#8217;s present. A Normandy Police Department officer deployed his Taser as his firearm was still holstered.<\/p>\n<p>Having no effect, the same officer produced his firearm and fired three times as the suspect began to flee across the front yard.<\/p>\n<p>This single Normandy Police Officer was the only officer on scene that fired his weapon during this incident. As the suspect fled, he traveled through the rear yards of Ellington towards Paddington.<\/p>\n<p>While doing so, he fired an additional shot at the officers giving chase.<\/p>\n<p>Officers momentarily lost sight of the suspect as he entered a front yard. Officers heard one additional shot from that area.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to the area, <a href=\"https:\/\/breaking911.com\/18-year-old-dies-of-self-inflicted-wounds-after-shootout-with-police-in-ferguson\/\">they discovered the suspect down<\/a> in the front yard suffering from what appeared to be a self inflicted gunshot wound located under the chin.<\/p>\n<p>The suspect was conveyed to a local hospital for treatment. He is identified as 18-year-old Amonderez P. Green.<\/p>\n<p>An independent civilian witness told detectives he observed the suspect running through a backyard in the 7700 block of Paddington carrying a silver revolver.<\/p>\n<p>The investigation revealed the suspect&#8217;s weapon to be a 6 shot, .38 caliber revolver, which was recovered at the scene. The weapon contained 4 spent shell casings and 2 live rounds.<\/p>\n<p>Three separate residences, that were behind the officers positions during the foot pursuit, were struck by gunfire.<\/p>\n<p>A projectile recovered from a residence is a ballistic match to the suspect\u2019s firearm. Through further investigation, the revolver recovered at the scene from the suspect was determined to belong to a close family associate of the suspect.<\/p>\n<p>The assessment at the hospital by emergency room personnel indicated the suspect&#8217;s only wound was the self inflicted one. It was a contact wound located under the suspect\u2019s chin. None of the Normandy Officer\u2019s rounds struck the suspect.<\/p>\n<p>The St. Louis County Police Department\u2019s Bureau of Crimes Against Persons received notification from medical personnel at the hospital pronouncing the suspect deceased at 4:29 AM. An autopsy is pending.<\/p>\n<p>The St. Louis County Police Department is asking that anyone who may have been a witness or has any information whatsoever regarding this case to please contact our department immediately.
