Floyd Ray Cook shootings and manhunt
The Floyd Ray Cook manhunt started on Saturday afternoon, October 24, 2015, and lasted nearly a week, when 62-year-old Floyd Ray Cook of Lebanon, Kentucky shot a Tennessee Highway Patrol officer who had pulled Cook over in Putnam County, Tennessee over an outstanding bench warrant, and ended 12:20 a.m. early Friday morning, October 30, 2015, when Floyd Cook was shot and killed in Cumberland County, Kentucky, 7 miles south of Burkesville on U.S. Route 61.〔Vinograd, Cassandra, and Walters, Shamar, (Floyd Cook Manhunt: Friends of Fugitive Rapist Nabbed )", ''NBC News'', October 29, 2015.〕 The agencies involved were the FBI, U.S. Marshals, Kentucky State Police, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, and local police officers. Helicopters and thermal-heat detecting technology were used in this massive manhunt.〔Logan, Dylan, and Galoforo, Claire, "(Fugitive who shot at police seen in Kentucky )", Associated Press, October 29, 2015.〕
==The Initial Confrontation==
After an August bench warrant for "failure to appear" in court over a methamphetamines charge was issued by a Circuit Judge from Hardin County, Kentucky, months went by as Floyd Cook hovered under the radar as a wanted man, until Saturday, October 24, 2015.
On that Saturday afternoon, in Algood, Tennessee, a small town on Interstate 40 midway between Nashville and Knoxville, Ahscari Valencia, an Algood police officer, pulled over a black Ford F-150 after a search of the vehicle's license plate turned out to be driven by a wanted man from Kentucky.〔Higdon, James. "(Manhunt continues for fugitive accused of shooting at police officers three times in two states )", ''Washington Post'' online, October 29, 2015.〕
As Valencia walked towards the truck, Cook fired multiple shots from his handgun, hitting Officer Valencia in the abdomen portion of his bulletproof vest. Valencia lived. Cook fled north towards Kentucky. Heading north into Kentucky on the west side of Dale Hollow Lake, Cook fled in his black F-150 truck on back roads, where he encountered Jeremy Baker, a Kentucky State Police officer, about 50 miles north of Algood. Baker tried to stop the black Ford F-150, but Cook kept on running, turned onto a side road that dead ended, which caused Cook to crash his truck. At 5:04pm, shots were reported fired, radioed in by Baker. Neither Cook nor Baker were wounded after the shootout. Cook then proceeded to flee on foot, disappearing into the wooded foothills.〔
