Police shot and killed a man in Ogden, Utah, who they say was suspected of kidnapping a woman.

The Friday night shooting occurred near Ogden's Christmas Village, which features live entertainment and cottages designed to resemble Santa's village at the North Pole.

Police Chief Randy Watt says a woman flagged down officers and told them she escaped after being abducted in another city by a man who was then spotted on a nearby sidewalk.

Watt said the man pulled out a pistol and fired at the officers, striking a police vehicle.

The chief says two officers then shot the suspect whose name was not immediately released. No bystanders were hurt.
