CLINTON COUNTY — A suspect is dead after a shooting involving state police at a Frankfort gas station Monday afternoon.
A preliminary investigation shows Indiana State Police troopers were notified of a vehicle driven by a suspect wanted in connection with a homicide in Ohio at 9:30 a.m.
Troopers located the suspect's vehicle, a black Chevrolet Cruze, traveling northbound on I-65 near the 149 mile-marker and attempted a traffic stop. However, ISP says the driver did not stop, initiating a pursuit.
The pursuit continued northbound to the 158-mile marker, where the vehicle exited onto State Road 28. It came to a stop at a BP Gas Station on County Road 800 W. At that point, police say a shot was fired from the vehicle and by troopers.
ISP SWAT approached the vehicle using an armored vehicle. They discovered a deceased individual inside the vehicle. No other occupants were found.
A firearm was recovered from inside the suspect’s vehicle, ISP says.
The suspect was identified as Terea Brown, 42, from Cincinnati, Ohio. Brown was wanted for questioning in connection with the death of 33-year-old woman out of Springfield, Ohio.
No officers or uninvolved citizens were injured in this incident.
