Maryland political aide died after 2 gunshot wounds, one self-inflicted

Authorities said agents acted in self-defense, and there will be no charges against any of the agents involved.

Knox County District Attorney General Charme Allen said in a news release that the agent who shot McGrath was acting in self-defense. When agents responded, they found McGrath’s vehicle and attempted to conduct a traffic stop when the vehicle left a parking lot, according to the release. Despite the lights and sirens of the agents’ vehicles, McGrath continued to drive until he was boxed in between two other businesses.

“Simultaneously, McGrath fired his gun striking his right temple, and the agent fired one round striking McGrath’s left cheek. Agents immediately called for an ambulance. EMTs arrived and transported McGrath to the University of Tennessee Medical Center where he was pronounced dead thirty minutes later,” the release said.
