Suspect Captured after Deputy Shot in Henderson County

JACKSONVILLE (AP/STAFF) — Authorities say an East Texas sheriff’s deputy has survived being shot in the protective vest during an attempted traffic stop in which a suspect fled but was captured several hours later. Henderson County Sheriff Botie Hillhouse says 39-year-old Jeremy Brian Cook of Grand Prairie was arrested Wednesday on a charge of attempted capital murder of a law enforcement officer. The shooting happened before dawn near Berryville, about 100 miles southeast of Dallas. The Texas Department of Public Safety says Cook, who fled on a motorcycle, was located in a wooded area near Jacksonville. The sheriff says deputy Jonathan Hutchison was hit in the side, taken to a Tyler hospital, treated and released. Cook was being held without bond.
