SARALAND, Ala. (WPMI) — Saraland Police Chief J.C. West says the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force located a homicide suspect out of Florida and shot him in the parking lot of a shopping center on Saraland Loop off Celeste Road Thursday afternoon. The suspect was taken to the hospital to be treated. West says the task force was conducting surveillance on the suspect in Satsuma and entered the Saraland jurisdiction. A witness says she saw an undercover SUV hit the suspect’s white truck.
“Then a couple seconds later, all you hear are gunshots,” said Stephanie Ricker.
It's unclear if the suspect fired shots at officers.
