Robert Glenn, 26, refused to stop on Saturday when officers from the Boardman Police Department attempted to stop him, leading the officials on a chase before fleeing on foot. 
 
Police, who have been searching for Glenn ever since, arrested three other men while searching for the fugitive.
 
After receiving a tip that Glenn may be at a residence, officers approached to find a male inside with a firearm.
 
Officers immediately took cover, and moments later a single gunshot was heard inside the home.
 
Three of the occupants were ultimately arrested, while a search of the home resulted in the recovery of two firearms, drug paraphernalia and a large amount of money.
 
Glenn, however, was not located.
 
The fugitive is described as a black male standing about 5-foot-9 an weighing about 265 pounds. His photo is viewable below.
