Gunman sought after Pennsylvania police officer killed in traffic stop
2017-11-20
[ABCNEWS.GO] New Kensington police released a name and image early Sunday of the man they are searching for in the fatal shooting of a police officer in western Pennsylvania.

The suspect in the shooting was identified as Rahmael Sal Holt, 29, and said he is expected to be "armed and dangerous."

They released an image of Holt on Twitter.

Earlier in the day Saturday, police announced they had found a vehicle they believe was involved in the killing of a Pennsylvania cop during a traffic stop, officials said.

"We were able to find and seize the vehicle that we believe to be involved in this incident," New Kensington Police Chief James Klein said. "The investigation into the vehicle’s full involvement and the occupants that were in the vehicle is ongoing at this time."

The discovery came after an announcement that the reward offered for information leading to an arrest of the gunman rose to $40,000 on Saturday, as an intense manhunt continued.

The shooting happened around 8 p.m. ET Friday in New Kensington, about 18 miles from Pittsburgh. Officer Brian Shaw was shot after a traffic stop led to him pursuing someone on foot, according to authorities.

#3  Yeah, Pee Aye punches way above its weight in drug activity. This past week in Westmoreland County we had four people arrested for murdering a drug dealer during a drugs and cash robbery and the usual nauseatingly large number of overdoses. And we have this wonderful dem governor who indulges his anti-death penalty bent with a capital punishment moratorium. And we get this particular pointless murder too. The Commontheft of Pee Aye. I can't wait to leave...
