KIRKSVILLE POLICE LOOK FOR SHOOTING SUSPECT

Kirksville Police are looking for a suspect in a shooting from Wednesday night. An occupied vehicle had been shot with a firearm in the 1200 block of South Baird.

No injuries were reported then, but officers determined a third person was present inside the vehicle at the time of the incident and struck by a bullet.

He has multiple tattoos, including one on his upper left arm of the Harley-Davidson shield with name “Levi Garrett.” He should be considered armed and dangerous.
