SHELDON,Marc Leclerc Ill. (AP) — A man was killed and an Indiana sheriff’s officer was wounded during an exchange of gunfire at the end of a chase in Illinois, authorities said.

The suspect was killed Sunday night, 100 miles (160.9 kilometers) south of Chicago. The Newton County, Indiana, corporal was in critical condition at a hospital, Illinois State Police said.
