(KAIR)--A suspect remained in critical condition Thursday, hospitalized in Kansas City after he was shot by police following a domestic dispute that spilled across state lines from Leavenworth, Kansas into Platte County, Missouri, when he fled from authorities early Thursday morning.
On Thursday evening, the Platte County Sheriff's Office identified him as 25-year-old Jonathan Heath-Taylor, of Leavenworth.
KSHB-TV reports that Leavenworth Police were called to a home in the 900 block of Leavenworth's Columbia Avenue, around 12:45 Thursday morning, to, the Saint Joseph Post reports, assist EMS and the Fire Department with an incident that occurred at that residence.
Once the preliminary investigation was completed, an alert to locate the suspect was issued arising from the reported domestic violence incident at the residence. The man was wanted for attempted first-degree murder, kidnapping, rape, aggravated domestic battery and a violation of a protection from abuse order.
Spotted by Police, the suspect fled, with the pursuit ending on Spur 45, in Platte County, where the suspect was shot by Leavenworth officers as they attempted to take him into custody.
Transported to a Kansas City hospital for treatment, the suspect remained, at last check, in critical condition.
No other injuries are reported.
The Platte County Sheriff's Office is overseeing the investigation, with the support of the Missouri State Highway Patrol and the Kansas City, Missouri Police Department.
