The underlying circumstances are under investigation. Police Chief Ken Lewis said the incident occurred at 1:50 p.m. Wednesday and was partly witnessed by a police clerk, who was alone at the station. He said the clerk saw the man park his car just outside the front window at the police station, located adjacent to City Hall at 133 Broadway St., and then heard a shot moments after he exited the vehicle.
