NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The estranged son of Nashville's police chief, who
was wanted in the shooting of two police officers, was found dead of a
self-inflicted gunshot wound after leading police on a chase in a stolen
car, authorities said.

Police had been searching for John Drake Jr., 38, since Saturday, when
two officers were shot and wounded outside a Dollar General store in La
Vergne, a city about 20 miles southeast of Nashville.

Metro Nashville Police spokesman Don Aaron said Drake stole a car at
gunpoint from a home southeast of downtown Tuesday night, WSMV-TV
reported. Drake asked a man and woman in front of a home for a ride and
when they were unable or unwilling to give him a ride, he pulled out a
gun and demanded the car in the driveway, Aaron said.

Officers spotted the car a short time later and followed it to the
Edgehill area south of downtown, where it crashed. Drake fled to a shed
behind a home and when officers surrounded the area, a gunshot was
heard, Aaron said.

Officers found Drake dead with a gunshot wound, the Tennessee Bureau of
Investigation said in a statement posted on social media. The bureau
will investigate Drake's death at District Attorney Glenn Funk's request
and a full autopsy will be performed as a part of the investigation, the
agency said.

Drake, who had been wanted on two counts of attempted first-degree
murder, was the son of Metro Nashville Police Department Chief John
Drake. The chief issued a statement Saturday confirming his son was the
suspect in the shooting. He said his son has not been part of his life
for some time.

"Despite my efforts and guidance in the early and teenage years, my son,
John Drake Jr., now 38 years old, resorted to years of criminal activity
and is a convicted felon," the police chief said.

Officers Ashely Boleyjack and Gregory Kern were investigating a stolen
vehicle outside the Dollar General store when they struggled with the
suspect, who pulled a handgun and shot them, said La Vergne Police Chief
Christopher Moews. Both officers were treated and released from
Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

In a statement posted on social media, Moews thanked all the officers
involved in Tuesday night's pursuit for their "steadfastness and
dedication to seeing this case through" and said their prayers are with
the police chief and his family.
