A 19-year-old man accidentally shot and killed himself Tuesday while attempting to rob a Grand Prairie home, authorities said.

Cameron Sands of Fort Worth kicked in the door of the house and shot himself in the stomach as he pulled a gun out of his pants to shoot the homeowner, police said. The homeowner was not injured.

After Mr. Sands shot himself, he dropped the gun and ran out of the house. Police found his body about 5:30 a.m. in the driveway of the home in the 2800 block Garden Grove Road, said Lt. John Brimmer, a Grand Prairie police spokesman.

"This is the first that I've heard of a robbery suspect killing himself as he is drawing a gun out of his waistband," Lt. Brimmer said. "The criminal evidence points to that. It certainly isn't common."

The Tarrant County medical examiner has ruled the death an accident.
