Authorities in Maryland have arrested a man accused of shooting two police officers and stealing a detective's vehicle during a 39-hour manhunt
Officer Shot Suspect Search
Officers eventually stopped him about 20 miles from that scene using spike strips. Linthicum fled into the woods but was surrounded by officers from multiple law enforcement agencies, with a helicopter illuminating the scene from above. Eight hours later and without further injury, they had him in handcuffs, authorities said.
Around 9:20 p.m. Thursday, authorities warned residents to shelter in place in the area surrounding Linthicum’s home, saying he had been spotted nearby. That’s when Linthicum shot the detective during a brief encounter and fled in his vehicle, officials alleged. Once Linthicum was surrounded, officers used several “less lethal” tactics to encourage him to surrender, including flash bangs. He tried to hide in a rocky area, but officers used a helicopter and drones to locate him before he was finally captured at around 5:45 a.m. Friday, Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler said.
“Our community is safer with this individual in custody where he belongs,” Gahler added at a news conference. Linthicum was expected to be transferred to the custody of Baltimore County Police.
