The man suspected of killing a Hobby Lobby distribution center manager in Oklahoma City Wednesday is dead. 

The suspect had a dispute with the victim before the shooting around 5 p.m., according to police. 

"An employee went inside and had an altercation with a manager," Oklahoma City Police Sgt. Rob Robertson told Fox News Digital. "The employee produced a weapon, a firearm of some type, and shot the manager at least one time, and that person is deceased."

The suspect fled the scene in a red Dodge Challenger with a vehicle tag from the Muscogee Nation, a federally recognized tribe in Oklahoma, and led police on a chase two counties away, KWTV reported. He apparently died in a collision along Highway 33 near Kingfisher.
