Hostage Taker Fatally Shot In San Diego

San Diego police shot and killed a fleeing robbery suspect late Monday morning after he took a hostage, holding a knife to the victim's neck in the Morena area, authorities said.

Three officers opened fire on the suspect. The hostage was not hit, said sheriff's Lt. Michael Krugh. The Sheriff's Department is handling the investigation under a countywide protocol designed to prevent departments from investigating shootings by their own officers or deputies.
