The chase ended at a home in the 2700 block of Wolfe Street where officers reportedly gave verbal commands and attempted to arrest Kirkland.

While trying to arrest Kirkland, the officers allegedly saw a gun on Kirkland. One officer deployed their taser, and another shot at Kirkland, a GBI spokesperson said

The GBI will conduct an independent investigation. The case file will be given to the Brunswick Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s Office for review following the investigation.
