How they died

Suicide

A routine traffic stop on the Newport Highway became a gunfight that left two sheriff's deputies wounded and set off a chaotic crime spree that stretched across most of north Spokane County. The alleged gunman, 41-year-old Charles R. Wallace, fled the scene and led law enforcement on a high-speed chase in a sedan he carjacked after the shooting, firing repeatedly at pursuing cars before he shot and killed himself.
