A former Utah state trooper suspected in a series of Dallas-area roadway shootings died on Christmas Eve, a day after police said he turned a gun on himself following a brief standoff.
Brian Smith, 37, had been in critical condition on life support from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Police said he shot himself in the head Tuesday, more than six hours after the roadway shooting spree ended.
Smith died Wednesday night at Parkland Hospital, nursing supervisor Arthur Clarke said.
Authorities were working to confirm that Smith was the gunman in separate fatal shootings minutes apart Monday on a Garland street and a Dallas interstate, Dallas police Lt. Craig Miller said.
