“And we’re going to find this guy.”Įlders, of Burleson, was believed to be driving the dead woman’s stolen Tacoma, with a Texas license plate of DKB6819, authorities said.The New York Times included an excerpt about Albarado’s actions in a May 26 story about Uvalde parents who were furious about law enforcement’s delayed response. “The best thing this guy can do is just turn himself in to some law enforcement agency and let us start processing him,” Cordell said of Elders. She was later pronounced dead at a hospital, police said. Investigators believe one of the suspects then carjacked a woman, who arrived at the Joshua Police Department just before 9 a.m. He and the two other suspects then fled in their vehicle before it caught fire about a half-mile away, at which point they abandoned the car, Cordell said. “There’s no other way to say it, he was absolutely ambushed during this attack,” the chief said of the wounded cop.Įlders had been sought on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon on a police officer following the early morning shooting.

A Burleson police officer was hospitalized after he was shot multiple times during a traffic stop in Texas. “He just leaned across the passenger side of the vehicle … and started firing shots right through the window of the car,” the chief said of Elders. “So we’re very lucky that he’s in stable condition right now.”Įlders was in the driver’s seat at the time, Cordell said. “He had no warning, nowhere really to go,” the chief said. The cop then tapped on the window, prompting Elders to open fire with a handgun, Cordell said. The officer was shot as he approached Elders’ vehicle on the passenger side, observing a white male in the back and a white female in the front passenger seat.
