WASHINGTON, Pa. (AP) — Police say a man shot and killed by officers led police on a 15-minute car chase through three southwestern Pennsylvania municipalities.

No officers were shot in the encounter, but several received minor injuries in the pursuit. Authorities say a female passenger jumped from Smith’s vehicle during the pursuit and received minor injuries. They say she is cooperating with police.
