A call of shots fired at a Hoover apartment complex early Saturday launched a police chase with shots fired along the way that traveled into Georgia and ended with a shootout there that wounded the suspect.

Hoover police Capt. Keith Czeskleba said officers responded to the complex on Wisteria Drive about 2 a.m. They did not find anyone injured, and no property damage.

Vestavia police officers spotted the suspect vehicle – a Chrysler 200 – and gave chase. They continued the high-speed pursuit along Interstate 65 to Interstate 20, heading eastbound.

They dropped off when the St. Clair County Sheriff’s Office picked up the pursuit.

St. Clair Sheriff Billy Murray said they entered the pursuit and continued eastbound on I-20.

He identified the suspect as Marcus Andrew Eaddy, who lives in Georgia.

St. Clair County deputies, Oxford police officers, Heflin police officers, the Cleburne County Sheriff’s Office and the Haralson County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia all took part in the chase.

During the pursuit, deputies took gunfire from the suspect and subsequently returned fire, Murray said.

Cleburne County sheriff’s officials said they were advised that the driver had been firing shots at law enforcement officers during the pursuit.

As the chase continued, Eaddy’s vehicle was traveling at extremely high speeds and was spiked by a Cleburne County deputy and a Heflin police officer.

The Chrysler continued into Georgia where it became disabled and crashed.

A shootout ensued. Multiple law enforcement vehicles took gunfire, but no officers were injured.

“The vehicle spun out at mile marker two and the driver opened fire on deputies and other officers, who returned fire,’’ Haralson County sheriff’s officials said in a press release.

The suspect was taken to the hospital. His condition was not immediately known.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is leading the probe.

The incident shut down parts of I-20 for several hours.
