A video has emerged of this morning's shootout on a Providence Highway, which left one person dead and another wounded.

Police say the incident started when a suspect under arrest stole a Rhode Island State Police cruiser after the officer stopped to assist during an unrelated accident.

The cruiser was later found abandoned, but witnesses say shortly thereafter shots could be heard near the Providence Place Mall.

This video was shot by Facebook user Juan Carlos Ardaya and used with his permission.
