A large police presence was seen in Maplewood Wednesday night near McMenemy Street and Lurie Avenue East.

According to a press release from Maplewood Police, officers were called to a residence for a report of a physical domestic incident between a boyfriend and girlfriend around 8:05 p.m.

Officers arrived at the house and began speaking with one of the people inside, identified by police as the victim. While speaking to them on the main floor, officers heard what sounded like two gunshots coming from the basement.

Police evacuated the residence and learned the suspect had access to a handgun inside the house.

Officers said they were unable to contact the suspect inside the basement and called Ramsey County SWAT to assist.

Two hours after the initial call, authorities discovered the suspect in the basement had died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. No one else was injured in the incident.

The identity of the suspect will not be released until their family has been notified.
