A scary scene took form at a place you would expect to be one of the safest today in Greeley. Around 8 a.m. this morning, an elderly man shot himself in the head on the front steps of the Greeley Police Station. 

Most of the details on the case have not been released yet, but Greeley Police Sgt. Joe Tymkowych plainly explained what happened according to the Greeley Tribune:

“It didn’t appear he wanted to come in,” Tymkowych said. “It appears as though he committed suicide. We did find a note.”

Tymkowych also said there were no witness to the shooting outside, but there may have been someone inside the station who saw what happened. All employees of the station were unharmed, but victim assistance counselors were immediately made available.

More details will be released when the man's identity is determined.
