4 fatally shot in Mississippi; possible suspect found dead

BILOXI, Miss. (AP) — Authorities say the possible suspect in the fatal shooting of three people at a Mississippi Gulf Coast motel and subsequent death of a person shot during a carjacking was found dead after a standoff with police. The motel owner and two employees were killed at the Biloxi motel Wednesday. Harrison County Coroner Brian Switzer identified the possible suspect as 32-year-old Jeremy Alesunder Reynolds. After the motel shootings, another man shot in a Gulfport carjacking later died in surgery. Gulfport police said Reynolds holed up in a convenience store after fleeing a stolen vehicle. After trying to negotiate with him and getting no response, police went into the store and found him dead. An autopsy will be performed to determine how he died.
