A woman has died after being taken hostage by a gunman. Officers were called to a house in Dartford, England, at around 12.40 pm on Saturday, May 6, following reports of a disturbance.
Kent Police along with negotiators attempted to engage with a 29-year-old male for over an hour as they tried to secure the release of a 36-year-old woman. Firearms cops entered the house and found both occupants with gunshot wounds believed to be from a pistol.
The Mirror reports that the woman was taken to a London hospital but sadly died last night from her injuries. The man was rushed to hospital and remains in critical condition.
