MACOUPIN COUNTY, Ill. (KMOV.com) -- A suspect is dead and an Illinois State Trooper is wounded after a chase led to an officer-involved shooting in Macoupin County Saturday afternoon.


Police said this started at 3:45 p.m. after the Glen Carbon Police Department sent a call for an armed carjacking at a Sam's Club.


A 36-year-old trooper responded and saw the suspect driving north on I-55 and started a pursuit. The trooper attempted a traffic stop but the suspect kept going until driving off to the median near the intersection of Staunton Road and I-55.




Police said the suspect's car got stuck so he fled on foot and produced a handgun and fired at the trooper. The trooper fired back, striking the suspect and fatally wounding him.
