Phoenix police say the shooting happened late Wednesday night when the 34-year-old suspect grabbed a woman as she entered her home near the Loop 101 and Seventh Street.

When the woman tried to close the door to her home, the suspect forced his way in and the woman grabbed a handgun and shot the suspect, according to police.

The suspect then fled the scene and was found at a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The woman was not injured during the attempted armed robbery.

The investigation is ongoing by police.

From White Rock, Texas;

The FBI confirmed Wednesday that a bank customer shot at a suspected bank robber on Tuesday outside the Los Alamos National Bank branch in White Rock.

Several witnesses reported hearing shots a bit before noon on Tuesday. An armed man dressed in all black, with his face covered, reportedly held up the bank and received an undisclosed amount of money.

Herman Manzanares, owner of Herman’s Auto next door to the bank in White Rock, said he and his employees heard the shots.

“We saw the guy run around to Rover and we saw the man who shot at him go back into the bank. We called 911 and so did the bank,” Manzanares said.

A few minutes later police arrived; traffic snarled as heavily armed police sought the suspect.
