FREDERICK, Md. (AP) - Fire engulfed a liquor store in a shopping center Monday just moments after a gunman barricaded inside began negotiating with police.
The gunman is believed to have died in the fire, but his body was not immediately recovered, said Lt. Thomas Chase, a spokesman for the Frederick Police Department. No other injuries were reported.
Police identified the gunman as James Douglas, 29, of Frederick, saying that the clerk recognized him and that he responded to that name during negotiations.
