Monday, March 18, 2024 12:45PMof a New Mexico state trooper and a South Carolina paramedic was captured Sunday following a shooting involving law enforcement, authorities said.
The 33-year-old suspect, who was identified on Saturday by police, was the subject of a massive manhunt. Smith's arrest came less than 24 hours after New Mexico State Police Chief Troy Weisler said, "Jaremy Smith, we are coming for you." "A foot pursuit ensued, shots were fired. Some shots struck Smith. We don't know the amount right now or how many. That's still under investigation," Allen said.
The suspect then walked to the driver's side of the patrol car and allegedly shot Hare again, Weisler said. He alleged that Smith pushed Hare into the passenger seat and drove off in the patrol car with the mortally wounded officer. During the investigation, police learned the car Smith was driving at the time of the encounter with Hare was registered to Machado-Fore, a paramedic for Florence County, South Carolina, Emergency Medical Services, authorities said.
"We will be tirelessly searching for any ledes and any individuals that we discover were involved with that," Weisler said.
