Police apprehended a man suspected in the shooting of an Oologah police officer.

After several car chases and a man hunt in Liberty, Kansas, police caught Alejandro Garcia, 22, shortly after 7 a.m. Friday morning. Cesar Rios, 23, and Roxanne Mendoza, 20, were arrested Thursday night in connection with the shooting.

The trio first came in contact with officers during a traffic stop in Talala. When the officer who stopped them called for backup for their arrest, they took off, taking officers on a chase to four miles down the road.

At that point, investigators said the trio opened fire, when Officer Charles Neill was shot in the head.

Medics life-flighted Neill to the hospital, where despite the injury, he was responsive. He is expected to be OK.

The pursuit continued into Kansas where stop sticks were laid out. When the vehicle was stopped, officers arrested Rios and Mendoza. Police recovered an AR-15 and body armor from in the vehicle.

At that point, Garcia fled on foot. While officers searched the area, they say Garcia took an elderly man hostage and forced him to drive.

expected to survive


The cop haters here love to quote how police work isn't in the top 10 most dangerous jobs because more loggers are killed every year yadda yadda yadda

This officer will survive and won't count towards the "dangerous job rate" but loggers don't have trees coming at them with chainsaws
