Authorities are actively searching for 55-year-old Michael Puckett, who is wanted in connection with a deadly shooting that claimed the life of one Carroll County, Virginia, deputy and left another officer injured. Law enforcement officials have classified Puckett as armed, extremely dangerous, and a significant threat to public safety, citing his extensive history of violent criminal behavior. The incident initially unfolded on Friday night in Carroll County, prompting a large-scale law enforcement response. Following the shooting, Puckett fled the scene and remains at large. His most recent known location was identified early Sunday morning when a wildlife game camera captured his image at 6:56 a.m. on Greenhill Road in Surry County, North Carolina. The discovery was confirmed by the Wytheville Police Department, which coordinated with federal agencies to update the public on his whereabouts. A massive multi-jurisdictional manhunt is currently underway across the region. Federal and state authorities have jointly announced a reward of up to $60,000 for any information that leads to Puckett’s arrest. Residents in both Carroll and Surry counties have been advised to lock their vehicles and secure their homes as the search continues. Anyone with information regarding Puckett’s location or activities is strongly encouraged to contact the Virginia State Police immediately at 540-444-7788. The U.S. Marshals Service and the Federal Bureau of Investigation continue to lead the investigation and urge the public to remain vigilant while reporting any suspicious activity.
