Police Fatally Shoot Man Who Stole JSO Patrol Car

JACKSONVILLE, FL -- A deadly police shooting at an apartment complex on the Northside capped a violent Sunday in Jacksonville which began with a murder.

The latest round of violence ended inside the Hilltop Apartments where, almost 12 hours earlier, police found a man with multiple stab wounds.

Around 10:30 Sunday night, a police officer stopped on Moncrief Road to talk to people in the street about the stabbing. Police say an individual pointed out a possible suspect.

The police officer moved toward the suspect when the suspect took off running. The officer chased him on foot. The suspect managed to climb into the officer's patrol car and speed off.

Chief Rick Graham said the suspect drove to the Hilltop Apartments where he crashed into several police cars.

The officers apparently had come to the apartment complex to follow up on the stabbing from Sunday morning.

One officer was pinned briefly in the crash.

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said the suspect got out of the stolen patrol car and pulled a knife.

Police say the man went toward officers when officers opened fire, killing the suspect.

Three officers went to Shands Jacksonville with non life-threatening injuries.

The suspect's name has not been released.

Chief Graham said the suspect is from Tennessee and has a lengthy and violent criminal past.

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office already had extra manpower on the streets Sunday to handle the heavy caseload.

Police found a 39-year-old man shot to death in a yard on Academy Street Sunday just after 6 a.m.

Four hours later, someone shot and killed a teenager riding a bike near the Hollybrook Apartments. He's been identified as 16 year old Monquell Wimberly.

Investigators are looking into whether his murder is related to Saturday's deadly shooting of a 20-year-old man on a bicycle on West 4th street near Grothe and Eaverson.

Shortly after 11 a.m. Sunday, police found a man with multiple stab wounds at the Hilltop Village Apartment complex on West 45th Street. He's been identified as 33 year old Daryll Alexander. He remains in critical condition at Shands.

Four hours later, police responded to a shooting at East 26th Street and Buckman. The victim ran to a corner grocery store for help but died at the hospital. He's been identified as 30 year old Nathanial Grant.
