A sexual assault suspect is dead after a police pursuit that started in Balch Springs.
The Dallas County Medical Examiner's Office identified the suspect in Tuesday night's dramatic, high-speed chase as 26-year-old Noah Timmons.
The pursuit started at about 8:30 p.m. near a house on Rodney Lane in Balch Springs when officers say they were trying to arrest Timmons for alleged sexual assault to a child.
Police say when they attempted to serve the warrants the suspect fired shots at officers and took off along Interstate 635.
The suspect was seen in Chopper 5 video in a white truck carrying a trailer.
Multiple departments assisted in the pursuit including Balch Springs PD, Dallas PD, Garland PD and Mesquite PD.
The truck finally stopped after a nearly 2 hour chase when it hit a guardrail along I-30 near Rockwall, sending a shower of sparks and debris onto the roadway.
Authorities say the suspect shot himself. The Dallas County Medical Examiner did not immediately confirm the cause of death and said an autopsy is still pending.
No officers were injured during the pursuit.
Court documents show that Timmons was on probation for aggravated robbery from a 2010 case. Garland Police said Timmons stole a woman's purse at an apartment complex parking lot, and then fired a shot at her head.
Balch Springs Police will have a press conference at 9am to provide new information about this incident.
NBC 5's Jeff Smith contributed to this report.
