Manhunt for Memphis Cop Killer

Police are on a Manhunt for 29 year old Tremaine Wilbourn, who fatally shot a Memphis police officer after he interrupted a drug deal that only involved a small amount of marijuana that would’ve only resulted in a misdemeanor citation and fine.

Wilbourn faces first degree murder charges in the death of Officer Sean Bolton. Wilbourn Was a passenger in a 2002 Mercedes Benz that was parked illegally in a neighborhood. Officer Bolton saw the car and proceeded to get out of his car and walk towards the Benz. Wilbourn got out of the car and confronted Bolton which led to a physical struggle. Wilbourn then took out his gun and shot multiple times. Bolton was taken to the hospital where he later died.The suspect and the driver drove off but the driver turned himself in. The driver was a person of interest but was released and will not be charged.

Since then police have been on the manhunt for the suspect. U.S. Marshals have also offered their help.

This is a very tragic situation. Plus this idiot made it worse on himself because he would’ve got off on a misdemeanor charge and now he’s looking at murder. Hopefully he gets caught soon.
