George Bush III allegedly wounded a police sergeant in an earlier incident. Police found his car abandoned at a parking garage. A woman had picked him up there, and officers tracked their vehicle to the intersection of Smiley and Leola avenues in St. Louis. Bush apparently realized he was being followed, jumped out of the car and fired a shot at the officers, striking the windshield of their pickup truck. He ran, and police pursued. He was shot killed in front of a house about 100 yards up the street.
