Delta State University shooting suspect Shannon Lamb kills himself

At some point during the intense daylong manhunt to apprehend him, Shannon Lamb spoke with police and told them he wasn't going to go to jail.

When officers finally caught up to him late Monday night, he made good on his threat, police said: he pulled out a gun and killed himself.

Lamb was the suspect in two killings:

The death of Ethan Schmidt, who was shot in the head in his office on the campus of Delta State University in Cleveland, Missisippi. And the shooting death of Amy Prentiss, who was found dead at a home in Gautier, a coastal city about 300 miles away from the university.

The hunt for Lamb brought together campus police and city police as well as the Mississippi Highway Patrol, Bolivar County Sheriff's Department and agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

At some point on Monday, Lamb spoke with police and told them "he wasn't going to jail," Gautier Police Chief Dante Elben said.
