The St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office responded to the Augustana Lutheran Church around 11 Thursday night on reports of a 48-year-old female threatening to commit suicide by firearm. When authorities arrived at the church, the woman got out of her car and pointed the gun at police multiple times. Two officers then opened fire, striking the woman twice. h/t fox21online
