ANMORE SHOOTING - West Virginia State Police say Chief Don Quinn of the Anmoore Police Department responded to a domestic dispute at an apartment complex.

After the door was shut, the suspect shot himself with a rifle, and the bullet passed through a wall and struck Chief Quinn in the elbow. Chief Quinn believed he was being fired at and returned fire, state police said. The suspect, believed to be 18-years-old, was dead at the scene. A female victim was at the scene as well, but was not seriously injured. Chief Quinn was taken to United Hospital Center in Bridgeport for treatment. Quinn has since been released. The identity of the shooter has not been released.
