Police appealed to a man on the run after three people were shot to make contact with them, saying: “Enough people have been hurt.” They are hunting Raoul Thomas Moat, who is suspected of critically injuring his former partner, killing her boyfriend, and wounding a police officer. Raoul Thomas Moat, who was released from prison on Thursday, is suspected of shooting the couple in Gateshead early yesterday, then the officer at East Denton, Newcastle early today.
Detective Chief Superintendent Neil Adamson said Raoul Thomas Moat mistakenly believed that his former partner, named locally as Samantha Stobbart, was having an affair with a Northumbria police officer.
Mr Adamson said the man shot dead, Chris Brown, who had moved to the area from Slough, had never been a Northumbria police officer and was not connected with the force in any way.
He said Miss Stobbart was injured but alive and PC David Rathband, shot early today, was seriously injured. He said he knew Raoul Thomas Moat was concerned for the future well-being of his three children.
“For their sake, this has to stop now,” he said.
“These are not the memories that your children need to have of their father.
“Enough people have been hurt. You need to make contact with us now.”
