A suspect was shot and another person is in custody after the pursuit, according to the Douglas County Sheriff's Office.

The officer was attempting to deploy a GPS device onto the suspect's vehicle when the suspect leaned out a window and fired, the document says.CASTLE ROCK, Colo. — A man who was shot by a deputy after leading law enforcement on a chase from Thornton all the way to Castle Rock early Wednesday morning repeatedly told his wife that he would not go back to prison.

The truck had areas that were spray painted and officers suspected a"misuse" of plates. As a result, they suspected it was stolen. However, the affidavit indicated the couple was homeless and living out of the truck and an abandoned RV in Thornton.Officers attempted to follow the couple but while they did, the affidavit says, Williamson doubled back and began following the officers.

She went on to say, according to the affidavit, that Williamson fired to get the police to stop chasing them and said Williamson repeatedly told her he would not go back to prison. Douglas County deputies pursued the truck at the point until Williamson crashed into a 7-Eleven on Plum Creek Parkway in Castle Rock. A clerk and a customer were inside the store.
