The suspect involved in Saturday night's officer-involved shooting in Eustis has died at the hospital, deputies said.
Pamela Edwards, 40, died at Orlando Regional Medical Center, said John Herrell, of the Lake County Sheriff's Office.
No other information was released Monday.
The incident started as a hit-and-run accident Saturday, Nov. 22.
The crash happened at the County Road 44 bypass in Lake County. Moments after an aqua-colored Ford Mustang fled the scene of the crash, a witness called 911 and followed the Mustang to a house along the 2000 block of Grant Avenue.
When Lake County Sheriff's Office deputies and Eustis Police Department officers arrived to the house, they talked to a woman, later identified as Edwards, for about an hour.
All of a sudden, Edwards pulled out a handgun and threatened to shoot them.
"Well, I was standing in the kitchen, and I heard this pop, pop, pop," said Susan Lynn Rausch, who lives nearby.
Investigators said the shots that Rausch heard were aimed at the hit-and-run suspect.
Two deputies and one police officer were questioning Edwards when she pulled out the gun.
“When the suspect produced a handgun, the officers felt threatened and that's when they shot to defend themselves," Herrell said.
Edwards was taken to the hospital in critical condition. She died Monday, Herrell said.
The two Lake County Sheriff's Office deputies and a Eustis Police Department officer have been placed on administrative leave as the Florida Department of Law Enforcement investigates the incident.
