The suspect, identified as 49-year-old Larry Wiley, is charged with assault on a federal officer with a deadly weapon, WOIO-19 reported.
The U.S. Marshal, whose name has not yet been released, was transported to an area hospital by another law enforcement vehicle before EMS arrived.
Wiley was described as a violent, convicted felon who has served almost 20 years in prison and has assaulted law enforcement officers several times previously, WOIO-19 reported.
He was wanted for several shootings in East Cleveland back on Sept. 16, according to court records obtained by WOIO-19.
Wiley remained barricaded inside the home for several hours before being taken into custody.
