 "Search intensifies for suspected killer of Memphis police officer
| Reuters")
NASHVILLE, Tenn. The hunt for a man suspected of fatally shooting a policeman in Memphis intensified on Monday with law enforcement intent on capturing one of the most wanted men in Tennessee.
Tremaine Wilbourn is suspected of shooting Officer Sean Bolton, 33, multiple times during a scuffle after the officer pulled up to a parked car and apparently interrupted a drug deal, Memphis police said.
“We are exhausting all available resources,” said police spokesman Louis Brownlee. He said the U.S. Marshall’s Service has offered a $10,000 reward and Mayor A.C. Wharton has asked the Memphis City Council to match it.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation placed the suspect on its Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitives List on Monday, saying “Wilbourn should be considered armed and dangerous.”
Police said Wilbourn, 29, was on supervised release from prison, where he had been serving a 10-year sentence for bank robbery.
Bolton, a former Marine, became the third Memphis police officer to be shot and killed in the past four years.
