Officer Stopped Suspect On Day Of Ariz. Shooting
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — The suspect in a deadly Arizona shooting ran a red light and was stopped by a wildlife officer less than three hours before the attack that wounded Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
The Arizona Game and Fish Department says an officer stopped Jared Loughner at about 7:30 a.m. Saturday.
The officer took Loughner's driver's license and vehicle registration information. Dispatchers checked the information and found no outstanding warrants on Loughner or his vehicle. He was given a verbal warning and released.
