Indiana Trooper Shot, Suspect Found Dead | Indianapolis News

Sergeant Justin Heflin, the Indiana State Trooper shot during a high-speed chase with suspect Kevin Meyers, is now in good condition and spirits. Meyers, a 54-year-old from LaPorte, was fleeing police in Michigan after allegedly stealing a pickup truck and crossing into Indiana, triggering the chase that ended in gunfire. After a massive manhunt involving over 100 officers, drones, and K-9 units, Meyers was found dead in a cornfield with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The incident has left a heavy toll on Heflin and his family, but the trooper’s recovery brings some relief. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
