around various streets of this neighborhood where, for those who know the americus area, were on martin luther king boulevard at the corner of allen and martin luther king. the authorities brought one resident out of the area, an elderly woman. she didn't seem to know too much of what was going on. the authorities said they were trying to get her to a safe distance. it's believed that the suspect here is armed and dangerous. he's posted on facebook a good-bye message so it's unclear but treating this as if he may be suicidal or suicide by cop where he'll do everything else to know he'll be taken down. in the meantime, the police officer who was taken to the hospital but in a reward money up to $70,000 that may have been enough to have picked the phone up and saying, i think the man is here. we don't know the details. the authorities have told us that there is a body cam video from yesterday when this suspect allegedly took his pistol and fired at both police officers. they reviewed the video but no reason to release that video especially if they believe they have the suspect cornered and maybe take
