A Philadelphia man suspected in the shooting of a Kmart manager on a store loading dock committed suicide, police said.
A gunshot went off in a second-floor bedroom as officers entered Daryl Anthony Birch's home at about 7:45 a.m. Wednesday, a Philadelphia police spokeswoman said. The spokeswoman said 30-year-old Birch shot himself in the head.
Officers had been searching for Birch since Tuesday morning's shooting.
Police said Birch shot a 35-year-old Kmart manager three times. Investigators said the gunman was arguing with his girlfriend, a Kmart employee, and opened fire, striking the manager as he intervened.
The manager was reported in critical condition at a hospital and was expected to survive.
