Upon their arrival, they encountered McMillan, who reportedly fled the scene in a vehicle, initiating a chase. The pursuit crossed county lines into Franklin County, with officers from multiple agencies joining the effort to stop him.
The chase continued into Decherd, a town in Franklin County, where it ultimately concluded. Faced with the end of the pursuit, Timothy James McMillan died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
