Authorities in Tennessee said that a guy who was shot after injuring an officer passed away in a hospital.

After being wounded in the side while pursuing an armed auto burglary suspect on Thursday, Metro Nashville Police Detective Donovan Coble, 33, was expected to make a full recovery, the police stated in a statement.

Police announced Thursday night that the suspect, Delama Casimir, 37, of Pompano Beach, Florida, passed just a few hours after surgery.

According to authorities, officers were called to The Parking Spot, a traveler parking lot close to the airport, when a caller reported seeing an armed guy breaking into automobiles.

According to reports, Casimir rushed through the parking lot and leapt over a wooden fence after authorities asked him to stop, with Coble pursuing and directing him.

After Coble was shot, another officer took him to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, and police started looking for Casimir again. Casimir was reported to have fallen in thick undergrowth.
