Re: Officer shot at Omaha Mall in critical condition
Suspect caught at 5:42 PM between Gretna and Lincoln after high-speed chase with every available state trooper, sheriff's deputy and local police officer in pursuit. They used stop sticks and took him into custody.
Injured officer resting in stable condition, and will have operation later this evening.
