New York, December 1 -- The man accused of killing four police officers has finally been gunned down, according to the sheriff's spokesman in Washington.

He was taken to Harborview Medical Center. Initially, his condition was not known, but now it has been confirmed that he is dead.
Clemmons was reported to be standing in the 4400 block of South Kenyon Street, when he confronted the police officers.
Manhunt comes to an end
The investigators had been looking for the suspect since Saturday night. In an ambush style attack on cops--three male and a female--at a Parkland coffee shop, Clemmons was shot in the abdomen Sunday night.
The officers had initially thought that he had died but later they were certain that he was alive.
The investigators had intensified the hunt in and around Seattle. They were storming homes, and searching the city streets to nab the accused.
But finally Tuesday morning the hunt came to an end with the gunning down of Clemmons.
