Seattle — A suspected carjacker died in a hail of police bullets after leading officers on a wild car chase through Seattle as he stole at least two vehicles, fired at officers and slammed into other drivers.

As many as 11 officers exchanged fire with the suspect, named as 35-year-old Raymond Azevedo by the Seattle Times, during the chase on Sunday.

Azevedo was shot multiple times following an hour-long chase that wound through several city neighbourhoods and saw him hit speeds of up to 70 miles per hour, according to the Seattle Times.

Azevedo was an alcoholic and had a long criminal history stretching back to the early 1990s, including convictions for theft, taking a motor vehicle without permission, burglary, and assault, according to a court summary.
