According to police, a suspect in a Ford F-150 hit multiple bicyclists at about 7:25 a.m. local time during a benefit race in Show Low, a city about 180 miles northeast of Phoenix.
The suspect fled the scene and was pursued by police, who soon engaged and shot the suspect behind a hardware store.
Authorities have only identified the suspect as a 35-year-old white man.
"Our community is shocked at this incident and our hearts and prayers are with the injured and their families at this time," Kristine M. Sleighter, a spokesperson for the Show Low Police Department said in the news release.
