DOLAN SPRINGS – The Mohave County Sheriff’s office has released the name of the man who is believed to have taken his own life during a SWAT team standoff in Dolan Springs last Friday. Spokeswoman Anita Mortensen identified the decedent as James Allen Burroughs, 44.
Mortensen said deputies responding to a 3:54 a.m. report of a domestic disturbance encountered gunfire from Burroughs when they arrived at the residence in the area of N Jasper Dr. and W. Seventh St.
SWAT team members were deployed to the scene and issued commands for Burroughs to peacefully surrender. “SWAT made entry into the residence and located the male subject deceased from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound,” Mortensen said.
