GRAND PRAIRIE — An Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent killed himself after an armed standoff with a police officer and three colleagues, Grand Prairie police said Wednesday.
Police discovered a suitcase full of pornography, a flag with a swastika and more than a half-dozen weapons after finding Mark Juvette dead early Wednesday.
Juvette, 40, worked for the agency's Dallas Office of Detention and Removal.
Agency officials did not comment.
A police officer was sent to Juvette's apartment Tuesday night after co-workers expressed concern for his welfare. The officer and three immigration agents couldn't get in the apartment, and Juvette began shooting at them through the door.
Officers found Juvette dead with a gunshot wound to the head early Wednesday. The Tarrant County medical examiner ruled his death a suicide.
Officers processing the scene said they found a large canvas suitcase full of pornographic magazines in the bedroom and a red flag with a black swastika hung in a closet with a few older-style military jackets.
