New York +Biggest Manhunt in NY State History, for Cop Shooter and Killer+
New York - A NY state police spokesman said that the hunt for cop shooter and killer Ralph "Bucky" Phillips, is biggest in NY state History.
The New York City Police Department might also be sending a team of elite Emergency Service Unit officers to help with the search for the fugitive who is thought to have shot three state troopers, one of them fatally, since escaping from an upstate jail in April.
The fugitive, described as a 6-foot, 240-pound member of the Seneca tribe of American Indians, is believed to have stolen an arsenal of guns and as many as 15 cars since escaping from Erie County Jail by using a can opener painstakingly to cut a 2-foot hole in the roof of the kitchen.
The manhunt for Ralph "Bucky" Phillips, 44, was stepped up to include more police from neighboring cities and state agencies after a state trooper, Joseph Longobardo, 32, died Sunday from a gunshot wound to his leg that he sustained last Thursday while looking for the fugitive.
Another trooper who was shot in the side, Donald Baker Jr., 38, was upgraded from critical to serious condition during the weekend, but went back to critical yesterday. On June 10, another trooper, Sean Brown, was shot in the stomach as he approached a suspicious car.
As many as 1000 law enforcement officers including FBI ATF DEA, are now involved in the search, and it might increase if he is not caught within the next few days.
The FBI will add Bucky on its 10 most wanted list replacing Polygamist Jeff's, if Bucky is not caught within 10 days.
NY State Troopers have stoped a local train in Hamburg NY on a report of sightng of Buky, Police have warned the area to stay indoors and keep all doors locked, SPalso offered a reward of 225K.
