On top of all of the deaths, we had to start school this week... Not a fun week at all.

Although, I've heard of this Peter Brock, I'm not entirely familiar with him...

A state trooper shot by ralph "bucky" phillips died a few days ago. They thought he was going to live, but he died. And bucky is still on the loose in NY/Penn. entering the americas most wanted list at number four. A reward of 400,000$ goes to whoever helps catch him.

The funny thing is, they (the police) had been within a few feet of him when they pulled him over to tell him he had a tail-light out. Upon leaving, the cop realizes who it is, abd bucky races off and gets away from the police yet another time.

Currently they think they have him surrounded at.... A golf course! They think they have a perimeter secured around the place, but I gotta say, that guy knows how to run. People who once wanted to help him now look at the reward, and are starting to change their minds. I believe a woman who was helping him out greatly during the whole thing just submitted some info for some cash. I don't know if that statement is true as it was told by word of mouth, but I'd believe it.

Basically the guy escaped from jail, shot a state trooper, fled, and has been stealing vehicles, particularly ATV's, since then. After the police had moved in on him (took away some family) he retailiated, shot two state troopers, and then fled... again. One of those two is the one who just died, very recently.

I hope they catch this guy before he has a chance to hurt anyone else.

Heh, thats great news. This guy deserves to get caught. Why anybody would plan to escape less then a month till they get out is beyond me. Then again, I have never spent time in jail, so I would not know what it is like.
