A 45-year-old man in Hyrum, Utah, called police early Sunday to claim he had killed his wife, then exchanged gunfire with deputies and a SWAT team while reportedly wearing a bomb vest and possessing explosives in his home. The incident prompted neighborhood evacuations, the deployment of armored vehicles, and a large-scale emergency response. Negotiators attempted contact, but communication with the suspect ceased for several hours.
