Hancock County coroner Leroy Schroeder said Henry was struck twice in the neck and jaw and that the shot to the neck killed him.
Two troopers were wounded in the gun battle that followed a 40-mile, high-speed chase on I-75 from Bowling Green to Bluffton.
Trooper Al Leitenberger of the Findlay post remains in St. Rita's Medical Center in Lima, Ohio, today with a gunshot wound to his right forearm. Trooper Chuck Grizzard of the Walbridge post was treated for a superficial wound to his right hand.
The chase began when Henry entered an Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles office in Bowling Green and tried to obtain a state ID card with phony documents.
Police were called, and Henry struggled with officers and fled.
Officers pulled over the van he was driving south on I-75 a short time later, and a woman got out of the vehicle. Arrested a short time later along the highway was Barbara Jean Clark, 27, of Southfield, Mich. The van had Michigan license plates.
She was being held in the Wood County jail on a charge of conspiracy to commit robbery, a third-degree felony.
