UPDATE: Springfield Tragedy, Woman Fatally Shot, Suspect Killed Following Interstate Pursuit Spanning Ohio to Indiana

A community reels after a tragic sequence of violence that began in Springfield Township, Ohio, and concluded with a fatal police chase in Clinton County, Indiana. Springfield Township Police responded to a call at the 2100 block of Lincoln Avenue early yesterday, finding 33-year-old Lacresha Black deceased from gunshot wounds outside her residence.

FOX19reports that the suspect, Terea Brown, age 42, is believed to have fled the crime scene before law enforcement’s arrival and embarked on a flight that would lead her into neighboring Indiana. Eventually spotted by Indiana State Police, the resultant pursuit ended dramatically when Brown’s vehicle, a Chevrolet Cruze, came to a standstill, and gunfire ensued, leaving Brown fatally wounded.

WLWT, an NBC affiliate, confirmed that no law enforcement officers were harmed during the incident. Continuing in a pursuit that began on the interstate and drew to a close at a gas station near the State Road 28 exit, at least one shot was confirmed fired, although it’s uncertain whether police fired upon the suspect.

The investigation remains active as Indiana State Police gather evidence to determine the sequence of deadly events. In a statement obtained by Fox19, a firearm was recovered by Indiana State Police from Brown’s vehicle after SWAT made entry using an armored vehicle. So far, there have been no reports of any other occupants in the car or additional injuries.

Police are encouraging anyone with details about the incidents to reach out.
