The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says a man wanted for shooting a Memphis police officer may be in Arkansas or Louisiana.
On Wednesday, TBI shared images of the suspect, 40-year-old Danell Maxwell, stating that investigators believe he may have fled the state and could now be in Arkansas, Louisiana, Georgia, or Iowa.
Maxwell faces charges of attempted first-degree murder, aggravated assault, and employing a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony in connection with the February 26 shooting of Memphis Police Officer Oscar Torres-Molina.
According to Memphis television station WREG, the manhunt for Maxwell has now stretched into its second week. The station also reports that Officer Molina has been released from the hospital.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation describes Maxwell as 5’10” tall and weighing 180 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Authorities consider him armed and dangerous.
Officials are offering a reward of up to $32,500 for information that leads to Maxwell’s capture.
