A bank robbery suspect was found dead in his Austin home after a nearly 20-hour standoff with a police SWAT team Wednesday.
About 9 a.m., FBI agents were executing an arrest warrant in the 5400 block of West Walton Street on a man wanted on federal bank robbery charges when the suspect barricaded himself inside the home, according to Chicago police and the FBI.
After an hourslong standoff that involved crisis negotiators, a SWAT team entered the home and found the man dead with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, officials said.
Chicago police were conducting a death investigation.
