The officer and a female suspect were taken to the hospital.
A male suspect barricaded himself inside his home and was later found dead, police said. Authorities identified the man as Russel Cooley, 40.
Police have not identified the female suspect.
Both the injured officer and the female suspect have since been release from the hospital.
