Sergeant Brandon Paudert and Police Officer
Bill Evans were shot and killed during a vehicle stop.
Officer Evans was on patrol on Interstate-40 when, at 1136 hours, he pulled
over a vehicle, occupied by two men, for a violation. Sergeant Paudert
arrived shortly after to provide back-up on the stop. During the stop, the
officers had the vehicle occupants exit the vehicle. A struggle with one
suspect ensued, followed by an exchange of gunfire; one suspect armed with a
handgun, and the second with a long rifle. Officer Evans and Sergeant
Paudert were both fatally wounded in an exchange of gunfire.
The suspect fled, and were later located at a nearby store. They were shot
and killed in a shootout with members of the Crittenden County Sheriff's
Office, in which the County Sheriff and the Chief of Patrol were seriously
wounded.
Sergeant Paudert was a seven year veteran of the department and a member of
the Drug Interdiction Unit. He was the son of the West Memphis Chief of
Police. He is survived by his three children.
