The chase ended near Troutdale after officers disabled the vehicle. Grayson carjacked a second vehicle, was stopped by police, exchanged gunfire, was injured and taken to a hospital before being arrested.

Grayson Morris was charged with first-degree homicide in Adams County Superior Court. On October 4, 2021, he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 23 and a half years in prison after a joint recommendation by prosecution and defense. The motive for the killing has not been disclosed.
