MANCHESTER, N.H. — A man suspected of shooting and critically wounding a police officer, then leading SWAT teams on a search through downtown Manchester and prompting school lockdowns, was arrested in Boston, police said Monday.
Michael "Stix" Addison was arrested without incident about 5:30 p.m. in an apartment, said David Estrada, a police spokesman. Authorities had been searching intensively all day as dozens of the officer's colleagues stood vigil at a Manchester hospital.
Police were looking for Addison on a reckless conduct warrant when Briggs was shot around 2:45 a.m. Monday. Police said the conduct charge stemmed from Addison being with a gunman who fired shots at an apartment building in Manchester early Sunday. No one was hit.
Officer Michael Briggs, shot while on his patrol bicycle, responded to a domestic violence call involving a gunshot, police said.
"As Officer Briggs approached the subject in an alley way, the subject turned on him and shot the officer," said Police Chief John Jaskolka.
The officer's age was not immediately released. He remained in critical condition Monday afternoon, a hospital spokeswoman said.......http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,221510,00.html
