After 4 a.m. Monday morning, a man approached the officer with a handgun. When the officer announced himself, the suspect ran, and jumped in an Impala.
Police cars followed the suspect until the suspect's vehicle spun out.
The suspect fired one shot. Three officers returned fire fatally striking the suspect.
