The FBI is investigating after a wanted fugitive from Maryland died following a shooting involving agents in the Knoxville area Monday evening.

According to the FBI’s Knoxville Field Office, Roy McGrath, 53, suffered wounds during an arrest. It is unclear who wounded McGrath.

McGrath was taken to the hospital with wounds where he later died. …

WBIR’s Washington, D.C. sister station, WUSA, reported McGrath had been a wanted fugitive since he disappeared in March, missing a court date for an eight-count federal indictment. In that case, McGrath faced charges including wire fraud, allegedly securing a $233,648 severance payment equal to one year of salary as the head of Maryland Environmental Service. He also faced fraud and embezzlement charges.

[No one’s yet saying who fired and why. The FBI will only confirm that at least one of its agents were present at the time, although it’s not clear why. Normally, the US Marshals Service deals with fugitives. We’ll keep an eye on this story as it develops. — Ed]
