ARTICLE SNIPPET: "INDIANAPOLIS -- A man fatally shot a Butler University police officer outside the school's basketball arena Friday, triggering a manhunt that ended with police shooting a suspect who later died.
The suspected gunman, identified as Kahdir Al Khattab, 26, was taken to Wishard Hospital in critical condition after being shot by Marion County Sheriff's deputies. He died about six hours later, said Frances Kelly, chief investigator for the Marion County coroner's office.
Kelly said the nature of Al Khattab's wounds would not be known until an autopsy is performed Saturday morning.
The 31-year-old Butler officer, James Davis, was called on a report of a suspicious person inside Hinkle Fieldhouse, where the women's basketball team was practicing, Indianapolis police Sgt. Steve Staletovich said."

British Muslim Delegation Hopes Prayer will change Militant's Hearts
BAGHDAD A two-man delegation from Britain's biggest Muslim group arrived in Iraq on Saturday on a quest to free British hostage Kenneth Bigley, seized by Islamic militants nine days ago and threatened with death.
After arriving in Baghdad, Reuters reported the men admitted they are looking at a big challenge to secure the release of the 62-year-old engineer, but said they had faith something could be done.
"Miracles do happen," Musharraf Hussain, a representative from the Muslim Council of Britain, told reporters in Baghdad.
"We believe in the power of prayer turning people's hearts and we can only have that trust and reliance in our God," Reuters reported Hussain said. "If (the captors) have faith in their hearts and the seeds of true submission to God then there will be some change."
Hussain and fellow delegate Dawud Abdullah arrived on a flight from Kuwait, where they told reporters earlier they believed Bigley was still alive.
Bigley and two American colleagues were seized from their home in Baghdad last week by terrorists led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
The militants have already executed the two Americans -- Eugene Armstrong and Jack Hensley -- after their demands to have all female prisoners released from Iraqi jails were not met.
The kidnappers are threatening to kill Bigley too, but have set no deadline.
Although an Islamic website reported that British captive Kenneth Bigley had been killed, the British government swiftly dismissed the announcement, Agence France Presse (AFP) reported.
"Tawhid wal Jihad (Unity and Holy War) announces the execution of the Briton and gives the good news of the kidnaping of seven British soldiers," read a brief statement on the website www.alezah.com as reported by AFP
It said that a "cassette" would soon be made available.
However, the authenticity of the statement could not be immediately verified, AFP reported.
The official site of the Unity and Holy War group, headed by suspected Al-Qaeda operative Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi, and other Islamist websites used by Zarqawi's group such as http://www.hostinganime.com/iraqnews3 , did not immediately carry any news on Bigley.
In London, the Foreign Office said it did not take the claim seriously.
"We are aware of the site called Alezah which is running that story, but it is a discredited website. We don't think it is to be taken seriously at this point," a Foreign Office spokesman told AFP.
The site is registered to a group in Kuwait.
Bigley has not been seen since he appeared in a fuzzy video Wednesday on an Internet site, in which he appealed directly to Prime Minister Tony Blair to intervene.
One radical Islamic website which features many of the beheading videos, also makes available the video of Bigley pleading for his life. Immediately under the place where that video is available for download, site operators have posted in English the words (sic) "Does a British civilian worth anything to Blair? Will he try to save this hostage or will he not care?"

Speaking in Kuwait, Reuters reported Abdullah said the delegation hoped to meet religious leaders and scholars, including the leadership of the High Association of Muslim Scholars. In Baghdad, he said he hoped their message would get through to Bigley's captors
"Whoever is holding Mr. Bigley, we are endeavoring to get a message through to those captors," Reuters reported he said.
The Muslim Council of Britain is the country's largest lobby group for Britain's 1.8 million Muslims.
In Britain, Reuters reported that Prime Minister Tony Blair praised Bigley's family, who have been holed up in their house in Liverpool waiting for news of his fate.
"I think everyone is amazed at how dignified they have been over the last few days and we will continue to do whatever we can," Reuters reported Blair said as he arrived at the annual conference of the Labor Party in southern England.
Ireland on Line (IOL) reported that the attention of some Labor Party delegates will be focused on the captive during the conference, as Kenneth Bigley's brother Paul is expected to take part in an unofficial meeting Sunday evening, dubbed "Iraq: War Crimes, War Criminals," organized by "Labor Against the War."
Paul Bigley has previously accused the United States of "sabotaging" his 62-year-old sibling's release, IOL reported, and has also criticized the British Prime Minister of "only going through the diplomatic instruction book" in his efforts to free his brother.
British Foreign Minister Jack Straw spoke by telephone to Bigley's Thai wife, who is in Thailand, Reuters reported. Terry Waite, the former Church of England envoy who was held hostage in Lebanon for five years, visited the Bigley family home in Liverpool.
Shortly after his visit, according to Reuters, Bigley's 86-year-old mother was taken to hospital for the second time this week, suffering from the stress of the ordeal.
"Unfortunately, the strength of spirit which she has, and shows, is not matched by her physical strength," Waite told Reuters.
The Muslim Association of Britain, an affiliate of the Muslim Council, said it appeared on Arabic TV station Al Jazeera to make a direct appeal to the kidnappers for Bigley's release.
Reuters reported the pleas came after the British government said it had distributed 50,000 leaflets in Baghdad, at the request of Bigley's family who want to exhaust all means possible to save him from Zarqawi and his militant followers.
