Authorities say Seattle police shot and killed the man accused of opening fire and killing four officers in Washington state on Sunday morning.
Pierce County sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer says Maurice Clemmons was shot early this morning in a Seattle neighborhood. Authorities suspected Clemmons of gunning down four police officers at a coffee shop Sunday morning in Lakewood, a suburb about 35 miles south of Seattle.
Authorities say Clemmons had received help since the Sunday morning shooting in Tacoma from a network friends and family. They gave him places to stay, medical aid, rides and money.
Officers late Monday detained a sister of Clemmons who they think treated the 37-year-old suspect's gunshot wound. Police say anyone helping him could face charges.
Authorities found a handgun carried by the suspect, along with a pickup truck belonging to the suspect with blood stains inside.
