Cocke County, TN (WOKI) An investigation is underway following an officer-involved shooting early Friday morning in Cocke County.

Officials with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation say preliminary information indicates deputies with the Cocke County Sheriff’s Office saw a vehicle, just before 1:00 a.m., being driven by a person known to have an outstanding warrant.

TBI says when deputies tried to pull the car over, the driver refused to stop, leading police on a chase to the 1700 block of Neddy Mountain Road in Del Rio where, for reasons still under investigation, deputies fired shots that struck the driver while attempting to take the person into custody.

The suspect was taken to the hospital for treatment. Neither the suspect nor the officer has been identified.
