Police Capt. Nichole Splinter said the suspect robbed the packed casino Friday night and was confronted by four officers as he tried to carjack a vehicle in the valet lot.

Splinter said the suspect fired at least one shot at an officer before being shot by a second officer.

She said the suspect's bullet hit the chest of the officer, whose vest probably saved his life.

A police spokesman, Officer Aden OcampoGomez, confirmed the suspect's death Saturday.

No identities were released. Police did not disclose how much money the suspect took in the holdup.
