Anyone know any more info on the shooting of Bill Gwatney?

This is all I can find on it:

I heard a rumor that the state police are chasing the suspect around Sheridan right now.

Ah better article. The way I heard they had apprehended someone but were also chasing someone else. Crazy stuff.

Well...no telling what's really going on then. Maybe tonight we'll know something for sure.

I'm hearing that the suspect was shot while being apprehended in Sheridan and was air-lifted to an unnamed hospital. Most of the reports I've heard/read say Gwatney is in critical condition, but one said he was in grave condition. So hopefully we will get better information tonight.

Suspect dead via AP - Gwatney in critical. That's on Ch. 11, I think.

This story says the shooter's dead. Also suggests it might possibly have been self inflicted: Wounded suspect in Ark. shooting dies after chase - Yahoo! News (broken link)
