(ABERDEEN, MD) -- A burglary suspect who rammed several police cars and injured an officer was fatally wounded by police after a pursuit that ended at an I-95 rest area early this morning.
Preliminary information indicates shortly before 2:30 a.m. today, a burglary was reported at a Target store in Aberdeen. Officers from the Aberdeen Police Department responded and spotted the suspect fleeing the store. The suspect refused to stop and rammed his vehicle into an Aberdeen Police patrol car, injuring the officer and disabling the police car.
A pursuit ensued throughout the area and onto both north and southbound I-95. Additional police cars from the Aberdeen Police Department and the Maryland State Police were rammed by the suspect during the pursuit.
The pursuit ended on the I-95 southbound entrance ramp to the Maryland House rest area when police fired at the suspect, who was the sole occupant of the vehicle. The suspect was flown to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center where he was pronounced deceased.
The Maryland State Police Homicide Unit is on the scene conducting the investigation. The Harford County State's Attorney has been notified and will be reviewing the investigation upon completion.
The southbound ramp to the Maryland House is expected to be closed for several hours, due to extensive scene processing. Traffic on southbound I-95 is not affected.
Additional information will be provided as it becomes available. The investigation is continuing.

Anon 8:41, the article didnt say MSP fired, it might have been aberdeen pd. It will get worse before it gets better. Hopefully these convicts will start to get the picture. Put the police in harms way and you die. All over a burglary charge that would most likely be resolved in a few years. Shame to loose your life for some stupid crime.
Good. Another idiot out of the gene pool.
MSP shot the guy and I for one am glad. Sorry for feeling that way. Joe you and I work for our money. I dont fear getting shot by a cop. These criminals are getting more violent and stupid every day. Hard working honest people dont fear the police I know I dont. I am sure Joe doesnt. We work for what we have. We dont steal and rob. You get what you get. Sorry I am losing sympathy for these crimnals.
