Description
Law enforcement shot and killed a carjacking suspect, and another was taken to the hospital Monday after they led authorities on a pursuit through Lewis and Thurston counties.
One citizen was also wounded in the shooting with non-life-threatening injuries, according to Thurston County Sheriff's Lt. Cameron Simper.
The pursuit started before noon in Lewis County.
Lewis County Sheriff's deputies saw a vehicle that was wanted out of Oregon, according to police. The deputies pursued the car to Thurston County.
The suspects exited northbound Interstate 5 near mile marker 88 in Thurston County when shots were fired, according to Washington State Patrol.
Law enforcement followed the suspects onto Old Highway 99 near Tenino.
At one point during the pursuit, a witness told KING 5 that the suspects shot a woman who was in traffic ahead of him. The suspects then allegedly stole the witness' truck at gunpoint with his pitbull mix dog inside.
Another witness told KING 5 that he heard an officer tell someone on a loudspeaker to come out of their car. The witness heard three shots fired.
Multiple officers from multiple agencies fired at the suspects, according to Simper.
