A MASS shooting suspect who was accused of killing four people on Saturday morning has been shot dead by police after a day-long manhunt.
Authorities caught Andre Longmore, 40, on Sunday afternoon near the area where four people were shot and killed in Hampton, Georgia.
Two officers were reportedly injured in a shootout during Hampton Police Department's attempt to catch the suspect, per local Atlanta news outlet WSB-TV.
One was confirmed to be a Henry County deputy and the other an officer from Clayton County — both are expected to survive their injuries.
The deputy was shot in the back and later taken by Life Flight to a nearby hospital.
Law enforcement officials previously noted they had four warrants for Longmore.

The deadly shooting began around 10.45am Saturday and spread across four different crime scenes.
The four deceased include three adult men and one adult woman, police said.
Hampton Police Chief James Turner since identified the victims in a press conference to be Scott Levitt, 67; Shirley Levitt, 66; Steve Blizzard, 65; and Ronald Jeffers, 66.
A motive for the shooting also remains unclear.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation and several law enforcement agencies worked together vigorously to locate Longmore.
“The monster is dead,” Henry County Sheriff Reginald B. Scandrett noted.
“The citizens of Hampton, the county of Henry, the metro Atlanta area, and the entire state of Georgia can breathe a little easier tonight. The suspect is off the street.”
At a press conference on Saturday afternoon, Scandrett also warned the suspect they would not stop until he was found.
"I’m gonna say this directly to you, Mr. Longmore: wherever you are, we will hunt you down in any hole you may be residing in and bring you to custody, period," the sheriff said.
Police had also issued a $10,000 reward for any information that led to Longmore's capture.
It's unclear if a tip was given to assist when officers tracked the suspect to 138 Mount Zion Parkway on Sunday.
Longmore returned fire after police engage the suspect, according to Scandrett.
“We gave chase, reengaged the suspect, he produced a handgun again, gunfire was exchanged and the suspect was neutralized,” he explained.
The Georgia shooting occurred less than one week after a fight at a party in Texas left two dead and five wounded from gunfire, as The U.S. Sun previously reported.
One person died at the scene outside Amarillo shopping center and another died at the hospital, local CBS affiliate KFDA reported.

Five others were injured but expected to recover from their wounds.
