We have received reports of a Jackson police officer shot in west Jackson. Mayor Frank Melton says officer DeWayne Collier was shot in the head. It appears the shooting came at the end of a chase, sparked by a robbery at Mississippi Title Loan on Highway 80. UMC officials report Collier is now in critical condition. We're told two black males ditched a gold Kia with no plates and took off in officer Collier's police cruiser. They then bailed out of that vehicle and took off on foot. A manhunt is now underway to find them. Tune in to WLBT for more information on this still developing story.
Prayers go out to this officer and his family. Hopefully he will recover from this. I truly hope these thugs resist further when they are caught up with.
Hospital officials are reporting that the officer is now in stable condition. Reports say he was hit three times. Once in the head, once in the left side, and in the hand. Hopefully he will make a full recovery.
