DECATUR - A man wanted on stalking charges was shot and killed during a scuffle with police early Tuesday. The DeKalb County medical examiner ruled the death a suicide. <br> <br> William G. Lloyd, 56, was wanted in neighboring Gwinnett County for aggravated stalking and misdemeanor battery in an Oct. 10 incident in which he was accused of hitting his ex-wife. <br> <br> DeKalb Police spokeswoman Lt. Pam Kunz said the officers located Lloyd at a motel and were trying to arrest him when he reached for a handgun. <br> <br> ``There was a struggle,&#39;&#39; she said. ``The suspect fired once, striking himself in the chest.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Both officers also fired their weapons, and Lloyd suffered multiple gunshot wounds. <br> <br> The officers, whose names weren&#39;t released, were not injured. They were placed on administrative leave while the shooting is investigated. <br> <br> Lloyd was out on bond after being arrested in January for similar crimes against his ex-wife in Florida.
