CAUTION

On September 16, 1994, Timothy Thomas Coombs allegedly shot a Missouri Highway Trooper in the chest while the officer was standing in his rural Missouri home. Although the officer was seriously injured, he survived the attack. It is believed that the shooting was in retaliation for the officer's arrest of a man who was an acquaintance of Coombs.

On September 23, 1994, a state arrest warrant was issued in the Division II Circuit Court in the State of Missouri, County of McDonald, charging Coombs with first degree assault of a law enforcement officer. On October 19, 1994, a federal arrest warrant was issued in the Western District of Missouri, Springfield, Missouri, charging Timothy Thomas Coombs with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
