Authorities had sought the suspect for shooting  a 28-year-old trooper during a late-night traffic stop in Hyannis, Cape Cod Massachussetts.

The trooper survived the shooting and was hospitalized, after a round went through his right hand and appeared to have struck his ballistic vest.

The suspect, whom The New York Times reported was a native from Jamaica, already had two more warrants in Massachusetts on charges including identity fraud and assault and battery on a police officer.

He was also wanted on narcotics and identity theft charges in the western state of Wyoming, according to police in Massachusetts.
