Officials say the accident happened just after 10:30 p.m. near NW 122nd Street and N MacArthur Boulevard.

When authorities arrived to the scene, the suspect started firing gun shots, police say.

When officers determined a threat, they began firing their firearms at the suspect. Seven officers were involved in the shooting and all have been placed on administrative leave pending investigation.

OKCPD says suspect was shot and taken to a nearby hospital where they were pronounced dead. No officers were injured during the shooting.
