Three sheriff's deputies were shot and a suspect is dead in a shooting that followed an hours-long standoff in Northern California, according to a sheriff's office.
The shooting happened Thursday at a home in Knightsen, the Contra Costa Sheriff's Office said in a news release. The area is an unincorporated community about 50 miles northeast of San Francisco.
A woman who said she had been held hostage inside overnight was able to escape, while the man was barricaded inside, the sheriff's office said.
