Police said the person killed was 36 year old Jeanne Seto.

Authorities have named the woman who died after an officer-involved shooting in Bath, New Hampshire. Police said the person killed was Jeanne Seto, 36.

According to investigators, the incident began Thursday night after officers received a report that Seto was armed, dangerous and heading toward a family member. Police attempted to stop her vehicle, but she did not comply with commands to pull over.

Officials said officers then approached the car and believed Seto was armed. During the encounter, she was shot. Police have not released whether one officer or several officers fired.

Seto was taken to a hospital, where she later died. No one else was hurt, authorities said.

The case remains under investigation.
