Gunshots near the Pennsylvania New York border from News 10:

a pair of Pennsylvania deputies working the midnight shift spotted the fugitive driving a stolen car outside Warren early this morning, and gave chase.

Police say Phillips crashed the car into some trees and fled on foot. As more police converged on the area, Phillips slipped away and stole another car.

Troopers spotted Phillips a few hours later in Chautauqua County and another chase ensued. Phillips then fled on foot after jumping out of the moving car.

NYS Police Superintendent Wayne Bennett says Phillips turned and displayed a gun, and that the officer fired back as Phillips fled.

Police currently have Phillips contained in a wooded area along the New York - Pennsylvania line.

Bennett says it is not clear whether Phillips was wounded, but that no police were hurt.

Update: Bucky was captured yesterday evening, September 8th, just before nightfall. The reward had gone up to $425,000 and apparently the money was to go to his family if he ‘turned himself in’. He surrendered Friday night in a field in Pennsylvania after he was surrounded on the New York/Pennsylvania border. Bucky walked out with his hands up. 25 SWAT officers and 12 dogs swept through a field where he was thought to be hiding, he gave himself up at about 8pm.

Phillips was taken to a Buffalo New York jail and will be arraigned Saturday morning. He faces a charge of attempted murder in connection with the shooting of a state trooper on June 10, and the murder charge for the death of Trooper Longobardo, 32, in addition to the shooting of Trooper Baker, who he allegedly shot in the back. Longobardo’s funeral is planned for this Monday, the wake will be held Saturday and Sunday. I’m sure this is a great relief to the people living there, and to the loved ones of Baker and Longobardo, that he is no longer ‘at large’. It will be interesting to see if he’s charged with stealing any of the cars he lifted during this ordeal, or the guns from the gunshop, or breaking and entering any of the houses and hunting cabins he took advantage of over this long period of time since his escape in April.
