Officials with the Marshals Service say the task force was trying to apprehend the suspect when he tried to flee and the shooting happened during the course of the arrest.
Details of the shooting haven't been released.
Authorities said Tuesday that the name of the suspect was being withheld until his family can be notified.
The task force is comprised of several federal and local law enforcement agencies and no members were injured in Monday's incident.
