I hope the officer makes it and they catch the shooter.

A warrant has been issued for a suspect, who has not been tracked down.

Reportedly the 40-year-old man was angry because his mother threw him out of her house.

I guess that's a good reason to commit capital murder. It's a good thing she didn't also spank him.

Suspect has not been found. Possibly he died in the wilderness. The temperature has been near freezing.
