The Nebraska State Patrol said they went to the man's Grand Island business to serve a federal arrest warrant for felon in possession of a firearm. The man barricaded himself inside the business, and troopers called for backup. When a SWAT team arrived, they made their way into the business and the man fled to a bathroom carrying a chainsaw. He locked himself in the bathroom and the SWAT team continued negotiations. The team made it into the bathroom and told the man to drop the chainsaw. When he wouldn't, a member of the SWAT team fired a non-lethal round at the man. The man then lowered himself onto the chainsaw, killing himself. A special prosecutor will be named in the case. Nebraska law requires a grand jury be convened anytime a person dies while in police custody or in the process of apprehension.
