A person died at a local Monroe County hospital after an officer-involved shooting on Tuesday.

The Department of Justice says Wisconsin State Patrol responded to reports of a local business that called for a domestic violence call. People were barricaded inside the business and law enforcement then negotiated with a male who was carrying a firearm outside.

The DOJ says during the incident, officials used deadly force with their firearms, striking the man. Law enforcement provided medical aid to the suspect but he later died at a local hospital.
