The suspect is alive. Interesting that police chose to shoot him in the leg. At least I'm assuming they shot him in the leg intentionally, and not because they are bad marksmen. I don't know enough from the article to determine if I think that was a good choice or not, to aim at the leg. In another situation, that decision could be fatal for the officer/s. An enraged, wounded perp may just shoot the officer and kill him or her.
