Man fires at officer in York County, PA; remains on run for hours
A little confusing here. The officer found the gun during a pat-down, but the suspect was able to grab it first and shoot at the officer?? That's what it sounds like. HG
Man fires at officer in York Cty., remains on run for hours
Saturday, April 25, 2009
The Associated Press
Police in southcentral Pennsylvania say a man who first told a police officer he was lost and needed a ride ended up pulling a gun and firing at the officer.
Police say Hellam Township Officer Drew Heistand told the 18-year-old York man that he'd need to pat him down before giving him a ride.
Officer Heistand found a 9 mm handgun when he did so yesterday morning. Police Chief Blaine Quickel says the man fired three shots at Officer Heistand before running off.
All three shots missed.
A three-hour manhunt ensued. Chief Quickel says the man stripped down to his boxer shorts and removed his shoes in an attempt to avoid being detected and at one point tied a white shirt to a tree as a decoy.
Chief Quickel says the suspect was tired and scratched up when police caught up with him and didn't resist arrest
