Vermont Police say an “armed and dangerous” man who remains at-large following a police shootout is likely still in the Morrisville area.
The officer who was shot was identified as Brian Tomlinson. He was struck by pellets from Lovell's gun and only sustained minor injuries.
Authorities said the public should expect a continued substantial police presence in and around Morrisville. State police are now leading the investigation, since it involved a police shooting. Once the investigation is complete, it will be turned over to the attorney general's office to determine whether the Morristown officer was justified in firing his gun.
