Los Alamos Police responded to the scene of a man found dead Tuesday night on Walnut Street.

Neighbors began contacting the Los Alamos Daily Post overnight following the sound of gunshots saying it appears the man died on the street at about 10 p.m. of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

“With our initial investigation, we have determined that there is no threat to the community,” Cmdr. Preston Ballew said.

The Office of the Medical Investigator will determine the cause of death, Ballew said.
