ROMEOVILLE, Ill. (AP) – Authorities say a SWAT team member fatally shot an armed man inside a suburban Chicago bank branch. Romeoville police say the suspect was shot by a Will County SWAT officer and was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police say the suspect had briefly held hostages inside the Fifth Third Bank branch but had released them before the shooting. Police say the armed man entered the bank at approximately 3:40 p.m. Tuesday and demanded to speak to police. Eyewitnesses said multiple shots were fired, but it does not appear that anyone was hit by gunfire prior to the SWAT team’s arrival.
