Australian police believe they have shot dead a suspect accused of killing two police officers and seriously wounding a third in a remote forest region seven months ago. There had been no confirmed sightings of Dezi Freeman since he allegedly opened fire on police officers who came to serve a warrant at his home northeast of Melbourne last year. Victoria’s Chief Commissioner of Police Mike Bush says a man believed to be Freeman was shot dead by police on Monday at a remote location in the northeast region of the state. Police were involved in a standoff for three hours before the suspect was shot.
