The man also killed three civilians during the escape. A large multi-state manhunt was initiated following the escape and murders.
On July 3rd, 1902, the man setup an ambush in a wooded area along the train tracks between Woodinville and Wayne, in Washington, as a posse searched the area. He shot and killed Detective Charles Raymond, of the Everett Police Department, and wounded Deputy John Williams, of the King County Sheriff's Department.

The suspect then fled the scene and invaded a house where he took the occupants hostage and ate dinner. As he left the house he encountered other officers and engaged them in a shootout. Posseman Neil Rowley of the King County Sheriff's Department and Officer Enoch Breece of the Seattle Police Department were both shot and killed.
On August 6th, 1902, the man committed suicide after being wounded during a shootout with a posse in Lincoln County, Washington.
