   SAN JOSE, Calif. (KABC) -- A violent crime spree in Northern California   
   ended in a deadly police shootout Wednesday, and the chaotic scene was   
   captured on video.   
      
   The multi-day crime spree, which included several armed robberies and   
   carjackings, spanned across multiple counties and cities. The suspect,   
   identified as 30-year-old Muhammed Hussein, died after he was run over   
   by police.

   Meantime, a police sergeant was shot in the head and is expected to   
   survive.   
      
   "Under fire, wounded and under extreme stress, his training and resolve   
   kicked in," said San Jose Police Chief Paul Joseph. "Only a person with   
   a warrior spirit could fight through an encounter like that and live."   
      
   Joseph called it "a scene none of us ever want to witness in real life."   
      
   "It's the kind of footage people might expect from an action movie, but   
   this was not a movie," he said. "This was a battle for that sergeant's   
   life unfolding in the middle of our city in broad daylight with members   
   of the public in the crossfire."   
      
   Timeline of the multi-day crime spree   
   According to Joseph, on Jan. 17, Hussein stole a red Corvette from a   
   dealership in Sacramento and committed multiple armed robberies in   
   Northern California and the Bay Area over the following days.   
      
   On Wednesday, license plate readers spotted the Corvette in San Jose,   
   but officers were not able to find the driver.   
      
   A police chase began when Hussein stole a bright green Corvette at   
   gunpoint from a dealership in San Jose, according to police.   
      
   The police helicopter followed the suspect about 45 miles south to   
   Hollister, where the man got into a shootout with San Benito sheriff's   
   deputies and Hollister Police.   
      
   Then, the suspect stole another car in Hollister -- which was captured   
   on cell phone video -- then drove back to San Jose as he fired at   
   California Highway Patrol officers along the way.   
      
   It all ended in downtown San Jose, as shown in video from a law   
   enforcement helicopter obtained by Fugitive.com.   
      
   You can see the suspect shoot the SJPD sergeant, hitting him in the head   
   and fracturing his skull, before trying to steal the sergeant's patrol   
   car and running off.   
      
   Police then shot Hussein and ran him over.   
      
   "Nothing about a deadly force encounter is pretty," Joseph said. "At   
   that point, you have an incredibly dangerous situation with a dangerous   
   individual and that individual needs to be stopped, and whatever means   
   the officers needed to use to stop that individual, they made a decision   
   in that moment."   
      
   A lengthy investigation will now begin into that fatal use of force and   
   all images and video collected by police, including body camera footage,   
   will be released in 45 days per state law.
