Four law enforcement officers were shot and wounded after they responded to a domestic violence incident at about 10:30 a.m. on Nov. 15 in Kansas, authorities said.

Three Osage County sheriff’s officers and a Kansas Highway Patrol trooper were wounded at a residence just north of 113th and Topeka Boulevard, said Melissa Underwood, communications director for the KBI.

A male civilian, identified as the suspect by Col. Erik Smith, died. Another man was taken to a hospital, where his condition was considered stable, said Tony Mattivi, director of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation.

The shooting scene is about eight miles south of Topeka.

The names, ages and genders of the six people shot weren’t immediately being released.

Details also weren’t being made public about the seriousness of the injuries suffered by the officers.

Law enforcement blocked off SW Topeka Boulevard Oct. 15 in an area where four law enforcement officers were shot and wounded in northern Osage County.
