A Missouri police officer is dead, one other is injured, and law enforcement is currently searching for the man they say is responsible.
Hermann Police Department Detective Sergeant Mason Griffith and another officer were shot just before 9:20 p.m. Sunday outside a general store in Hermann, according to FOX 2 in St. Louis.
The shooting prompted a Blue Alert from the Missouri State Highway Patrol, which was asked to investigate. MSHP identified Kenneth Lee Simpson, 35, as the shooter and a spokesman told Fox News Digital he fled the scene on foot.
Investigators got information that led them to believe Simpson barricaded himself inside a home just across the street from where the shooting took place, but it has not been confirmed that he is inside.
