A 41-year-old Taunton man who barricaded himself inside his bedroom prompting a Swat response on Tuesday, died as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, authorities said.
The Bristol District Attorney’s office on Wednesday said that Peter Rose was found unresponsive when a robotic device entered the home six hours after police initially arrived.
A single .40 caliber casing was located near his body and a .40 caliber Glock firearm was found directly next to him, authorities said. No foul play is suspected. Rose was pronounced dead at the scene at 8:17 p.m., authorities said.
About six hours earlier, at 2:15 p.m. police in Taunton received a call from a woman who said her daughter was a victim of an ongoing domestic incident involving Rose, her husband, at an apartment on Grant Street, authorities said.
When officers arrived, they spoke with the woman who said Rose barricaded himself in his bedroom with a gun. Police removed the woman and two children from the apartment, authorities said.
Police and Taunton and members of the SEMLEC Swat set up a secure perimeter outside the apartment and tried several times to contact Rose.
At around 8 p.m., authorities said, a robotic device entered the apartment and the bedroom, where Rose was found unresponsive.
