DENVER (AP) - Denver police say one suspect is dead, three others in custody are injured, and an officer has a gunshot wound after a chase that included a crash in northwest Denver.

Police were still looking for one more person Wednesday described as a Hispanic male, about 6-feet-2, with a thin build and wearing a white hoodie.

Police spokesman John White says an officer was pursuing a vehicle when one suspect fired at the officer, who was shot in the shoulder and is expected to survive. He says one suspect died at the scene, one was in hospitalized in critical condition, one suffered a dog bite, and a female suspect sustained injuries believed to be from the crash at the scene.

Details of what prompted the chase weren't immediately released.
