JACKSONVILLE, Florida (AP) - Authorities say a routine traffic stop in Jacksonville led to a shootout with police and a suspect being killed.

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office reports that a vehicle was pulled over for some equipment violations early Tuesday morning. Two officers approached the car, and the passenger, later identified as 23-year-old John Dawson Parker, opened the door and ran.

The Florida Times-Union reports that one officer chased Parker on foot while the other officer followed in a patrol car. The officer on foot eventually tackled Parker, and a struggle ensued.

Authorities say Parker pushed away at some point, drew a gun and fired at the officer. Both officers returned fire, killing Parker. A nearby home was hit by a bullet, but no one inside was injured.

The driver who was initially pulled over was cooperating with officers.
