The Escambia County Sheriff's Office says a man wanted for murder killed himself after being stopped by law enforcement officers.
Investigators say, 38-year-old, Jeremy Blade shot himself Tuesday night.
Sheriff's deputies were trying to take Blade in to custody when they say he pulled out a gun and shot himself.
Blade had been named as a suspect in a homicide earlier in the day.
It is believed he shot and killed a woman in the 800 Block of Johnson Ave.

The Sheriff's Office says a citizen who had seen the news spotted the vehicle and called 911.

The Escambia County Sheriff's Office says deputies ordered Blade out of the vehicle and that's when he shot himself.
