A teen on a two-day crime spree was shot and killed by Ardmore, Okla. police Thursday night after shooting at least four people, including two agents of the Bureau of Alcochol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), Ardmore officers say.
None of the injuries suffered by the people shot by Henry Jackson, 18, was life-threatening, authorities say.
CBS Sherman, Texas affiliate KXII-TV cites police as saying Jackson shot a 19-year-old woman as she was leaving her Ardmore home Wednesday night. They say she was in the back seat of a friend's car when Jackson approached wearing a black hoodie and ski mask and knocked on the window before shooting her in the arm. She was taken to a hospital in good condition.
On Thursday, KXII reports police say, Jackson got into a scrape with an unnamed person who he shot in the hip. That person was airlifted to an Oklahoma City hospital and has since been released.
While Ardmore officers were searching for Jackson, two ATF agents who happened to be nearby found a vehicle Jackson was believed to be in and Jackson opened fire on the agents, injuring both, police say.
One was treated at the scene and the other was taken to a hospital with minor injuries.
Thursday night, Ardmore officers were searching a neighborhood where they believed Jackson was hiding when, authorities say, Jackson was spotted in a silver Ford Taurus.
According to police, the officers gave chase, Jackson began shooting, and the officers fired back, hitting Jackson several times. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The Ardmore officers weren't hurt.

An Arizona woman is accused of trying to poison her four children, including one who died, and of stabbing her former husband, all on Christmas.
Casa Grande police say 35-year-old Connie Villa was arrested Sunday on suspicion of one count of first-degree murder and four counts of attempted murder.
According to police, the ex-husband called 911 after he was stabbed when he went to Villa's residence. Officers found the body of 13-year-old Aniarael Macias, while Villa with stab wounds believed to have been self-inflicted.
Autopsy and toxicology results are pending on the girl, believed to have been poisoned.
The three other children are in good condition and are now with their father's family.
