( CNN ) It started as a police chase after a teenager allegedly ignored a traffic stop by a Maryland state trooper . By the time it ended , the 16-year-old suspect was dead in a shootout with officers . During an investigation into the teen 's background , police found three bodies at a Kentucky address linked to him . Authorities in both states are trying to put together a timeline of events that ended with the shootout Saturday . How did the teen , identified as Jason C. Hendrix of Corbin , Kentucky , get from his hometown to Baltimore County ? Did he kill his mother , father and sister ? If he did so , why ? And when ? Could a dispute over computer use have something to do with it , as a newspaper reported ? And why did the teen head to Maryland ? It was a mundane traffic stop on Valentine 's Day . Hendrix , who was driving a Honda Pilot , failed to stop when a state trooper tried to pull him over on Interstate 95 , according to the Baltimore County Police Department . A car chase ensued , and police cornered him after he struck another vehicle at an intersection in Woodlawn , forcing him to stop . `` As officers approached the Honda Pilot , gunfire came from the vehicle , striking an officer , '' authorities said . `` Officers then returned fire on the vehicle . '' Hendrix , who was alone in the car , was shot to death . The officer injured in the shootout was treated at a local hospital and released . `` His ballistic vest stopped the round that struck him , '' police said . Authorities found a `` handgun and other weapons '' during a search of the suspect 's car . About 500 miles away from the shootout , a grisly scene awaited . Baltimore County detectives traced the suspect 's car registration to an address in Corbin . They reached out to their counterparts there , who went to the address and found the bodies of Kevin and Sarah Hendrix , and their daughter . Police are looking at Jason Hendrix as the main suspect in the deaths of his parents and sister , according to the Times Tribune newspaper . All signs point to him as the suspect , Maj . Rob Jones told CNN affiliate WLEX . `` We still have to finish our investigation to definitely say if this is the guy , '' he added . Corbin Police Chief David Campbell told the Lexington Herald-Leader the teen `` was mad at his parents over the usage of his computer . They had taken his computer rights away . '' The Corbin Police Department declined to comment when reached by CNN on Monday , saying it only had limited information . Campbell told the Lexington newspaper that all three victims had been shot in the head at least twice . `` A pillow was used to try to muffle the gunshot used on all three individuals , '' he said . `` The pillows were still on their faces . '' The coroner 's office is still trying to determine when the killings happened . Based on their investigation at the crime scene , Jones said , `` officers are thinking it was sometime around Wednesday , '' several days before the suspect was killed in the Baltimore County shootout . At Union College in Barbourville , Kentucky , where Sarah Hendrix was an associate professor of social work , officials said the community was heartbroken . `` We have lost a member of our family , `` they said in a Facebook post . `` A wonderful educator , colleague and friend .
