The Suspect

Police identified the suspect Thursday as Tyrone Domingo Banks, 30, of Baltimore.



The 11 News I-Team found electronic records show several cases of second-assault in Banks' past, including in 2010, when he was accused of assault on a law enforcement officer and mental health issues. Court official told the I-Team that the 2010 case is sealed because a "not criminally responsible" finding was entered in 2015.

A close family friend of Banks told the I-Team that Banks was not targeting police.

"He was not out to kill anybody. He was not out to target police. He was only dealing with his emotional and mental instability. He wanted a relief from that," the friend said.

The friend said Banks was a schizophrenic and refused to take his medication. He wanted to commit suicide through police, the friend said.

"I think (he didn't take his medication) because of the side effects and the stigma behind medication," the friend said.

The friend said that Banks has been in and out of Spring Grove Hospital because of his emotional and mental condition. The friend said Banks claimed to hearing voices in his head all the time.



"The voices in his head was stronger than his will to try to do the right thing," the friend said. "He just couldn't deal with everything. The reality of life."

The friend said Banks was suicidal and thought fatally tangling with police would solve his problems.

Police said Banks taunted officers for two days, pointing a gun at them on Tuesday then leading them on a chase into another jurisdiction. Police knew who they were dealing with Wednesday night. The family friend told the I-Team that Banks took his fiancee's car without permission and that she reported it stolen. The friend didn't know where the gun came from.



Banks is survived by his fiancee and three children.
