BAY ST LOUIS, MISSISSIPPI: Investigators have said that Amy Brogdon Anderson, a 43-year-old Ocean Springs resident who shot dead two cops, did not die by suicide. Anderson killed officers Brandon Estorffe and Steven Robin when they responded to a call for a welfare check from the motel she checked into. This happened after Anderson believed she was being followed by a white truck and subsequently asked the motel clerk to call 911.

The motel is on Interstate 90, which runs through the Gulf Coast city. Anderson told the officers that she came to the motel room with her daughter, eight, because she was in fear for her life. Her death, however, was caused by a bullet from one of the officers, and was not self-inflicted, WLOX News reported.
