A Blue Alert has been issued for an armed and dangerous suspect who allegedly shot and killed an officer. The alert system was created by Georgia legislators in 2010 to aid in the apprehension of suspects who harm or kill officers. To issue a Blue Alert, certain criteria must be met, including the suspect posing a serious threat to the public and sufficient information being available to help locate them.

The suspect in this case has not been apprehended and is considered a threat to the public. Further details about the incident and the suspect are available from the source.

The Blue Alert system can also be used if an officer is missing, and it helps disseminate information to the public to assist in locating the suspect.
