State agents are investigating a deadly officer-involved shooting in Euclid.

Police responded to an East 219th Street home Sunday night after a woman reported she was being assaulted.

At the scene, the woman told police the suspect, identified as 37-year-old Robert Riddlebarger, was inside the residence with a three-year-old child and several firearms.

When Riddlebarger refused to come out, officers entered, and according to reports, one shot him when he confronted them with a loaded rifle.

The suspect later died at a local hospital.
