Officers issued verbal commands and at some point exchanged gunfire with the driver. After the crash and shooting, officers found Hardwick in the driver’s seat with a fatal gunshot wound. An autopsy later determined the wound was self-inflicted. A 34-year-old female front-seat passenger was injured in the crash and taken to a hospital.
