SABETHA, Kan. (AP) — Authorities say two law enforcement officers shot a man during a confrontation in the northeast Kansas town of Sabetha. The Kansas Bureau of Investigation said Sabetha police and Nemaha County officers responded to a call Wednesday night of a person who was possibly suicidal. The KBI says law enforcement officers tried to convince 38-year-old Kelly J. Hall to come out of the house, and he eventually came out holding a nail gun. The KBI says Hall was shot when he began firing nails at the officers. He was taken to a Topeka hospital, where he was in critical but stable condition Thursday afternoon. No officers were injured.
