Grant fled in a vehicle and detectives tracked his cellphone to the Harrisonburg area, Keen said. Grant later pulled over on I-81 in Augusta County and fatally shot himself during a standoff with Virginia State Police. A state police statement said troopers did not use force.
The motive behind the shooting remains unclear, Keen said.
