(Above photo credit: kfor) (Admin Note #1: clarification on wanted flyer information: "Indian" refers to Vance as a Native American. The communicable disease according to news reports is rumored to be HIV.) From nbcnews.com: A double-murder suspect was being hunted early Monday after shooting at least three other people — including two police officers — and stealing a patrol car. Authorities believe Michael Vance was also struck by bullets at least twice during an exchange of gunfire near Wellston, Oklahoma, on Sunday night. He is believed to be armed with an AK-47. The two injured officers were responding to reports of shots fired at a mobile home park in Lincoln County, which is located northeast of Oklahoma City. They came under fire almost immediately after arriving at the scene around 6:30 p.m., Sheriff Charlie Dougherty told local reporters. "He recently got out of my jail. He was accused of child sexual assault. We were doing an investigation, we arrested him. That is supposedly what set him off but we don`t know that for sure yet," Dougherty told KFOR. Dougherty said Vance sped away in a stolen patrol car. He then switched vehicles by carjacking a woman, shooting and injuring her before he fled in her car. Police said he was also wanted in connection with two homicides but further details weren't immediately released. A good Samaritan driving home from the grocery store stopped and assisted the officers. One officer was shot in the foot; another had a bullet pierce his leg. "Both of them were bleeding out their legs pretty bad," Chrystal King told NBC affiliate KFOR. "So, we stopped and I got some old shirts out of the truck and tied them up." Their injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. A second suspect was arrested, officials said. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/michael-vance-hunted-after-allegedly-shooting-2-oklahoma-cops-n671621Thoughts?

P.S. Am I the only one who thinks Michael Vance looks sorta a little like David Burgert?

I am also seeing a striking resemblance to David Burgert. Ironically both are wanted for shooting at police officers.

Wow I actually see a resemblance to Burgert with significant weight loss and this guy is off the wall, it's very dangerous right now for anyone in that area. This reminds me of Bradley Stone, the man they launched a huge manhunt for in Pennsylvania in 2014. Let's hope nobody gets hurt and he's taken into custody without any more bloodshed

It should also be noted articles say the FBI and U.S. Marshals have also joined the search, so obviously he should be considered a candidate for both agency's top fugitive lists as a breaking news fugitive should this manhunt go on any longer than it has to. Hopefully this ends as quickly as possible.

That is good news. He seriously would but let's hope this doesn't escalate to that level but with 2 slots open on the top 10 and 2 as well on the Marshals anything is potential if he's not caught. If he were to make the FBI 10 list he'd for sure replace Shanika Minor.

Well I also believed he succumbed to his injuries in some wooded area. Now I think he probably went to Texas or he is planning to go on to Louisiana but Mexico would be a likely destination. Also the number of people shot is now up to 6

Also, some more updates: Vance apparently had a 'hit list': www.koco.com/article/ocso-aware-that-michael-vance-has-a-hit-list/7358363Vance was also profiled on HLN tonight on anchor Ashleigh Banfield's show (I can't figure out the url itself but you can find the video if you scroll down on her official Facebook page): www.facebook.com/AshleighBanfield/But yeah, this is by far the scariest non-terror related breaking news fugitive I've seen since possibly Chris Dorner, if only he had half the publicity perhaps he'd be caught by now.

I really haven't seen major stations like CNN on this because of the election, I give credit to HLN for covering this case and also let's give Ashleigh Banfield some credit too. Yahoo I give credit to for being on top of this but mostly this is good reporting by the local stations in Oklahoma.
I guess this may not be terrorism yet by definition, but don't you think him allegedly trying to spread HIV is a case of possible ATTEMPTED biological warfare/terrorism?
