The retired Army Special Forces Veteran accused of trying to kill his wife is dead after the incident sparked a massive multi-agency manhunt, according to an official.
Deputy United States Marshal Christian A. Marrero told Fox News Digital that Craig Berry is dead and "no longer a threat to the public." The Stewart County Sheriff's Office in Tennessee said initial indications show Berry died due to a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Berry allegedly shot his wife during a domestic incident at the couple's house in Dover, Tennessee early Friday morning before he fled the area. He was wanted on charges of attempted second-degree murder, aggravated assault, domestic assault and leaving the scene of an accident.
Stewart County Sheriff Frankie Gray told Iraq four times between 2003 and 2014, according to the spokesperson.
In the hours after the shooting, troopers from the Tennessee Highway Patrol and deputies and investigators from the Stewart County Sheriff's Office searched through a densely wooded area for Berry, according to a video released by the state agency.
In an earlier social media post, the sheriff's office warned that Berry was considered "armed and dangerous."
Deputies added that Berry was an "excellent swimmer and diver" and was believed to be in "good physical shape," stating he had "extensive training" in survival tactics.
Stewart County Schools said in a statement on Facebook that Berry's wife is a schoolteacher.
"We are aware of a serious incident involving one of our staff members. We understand this news may be upsetting to students, staff, and families. Please know that this incident did not occur on school grounds, and there is no ongoing threat to our schools," the school district said.
"Our thoughts are with our staff member and her loved ones during this time. We will continue to respect her privacy."
