A suspect accused of shooting and wounding four law enforcement officers was arrested after a long standoff in the US state of Texas last night.
Wanted for shooting the Harris County sheriff while stopped, Terran Green (34) launched a manhunt after fleeing the scene. Then he fenced himself in a house.
The search led authorities to a residence in Sunset Ridge West, where Green barricaded himself. A woman with two children confirmed Green's presence. When police approached, the suspect opened fire, wounding three of them.
The deputy sheriff of the United States was shot in the leg, the second was pierced by shrapnel, and the Harris County deputy sheriff was shot twice in the upper body, his body armor severely wounded.
Unable to fight back, the delegates withdrew as the suspect barricaded himself, causing a protracted stalemate. Smoke is glimpsed from the house in the episode.
At about 5 o'clock, the suspect surrendered after an armored tactical vehicle called "The Rook" arrived and began to dismantle the house. Green was seen getting out of the car. He was then quickly arrested.
