An increased reward of $40,000 is now being offered for information on a 21-year-old man who allegedly shot two officers just outside of Columbus, according to the Franklin County Sheriff's Office.
Police said Daveonte Dixon, 21, was a passenger in a vehicle that was pulled over Wednesday night in Mifflin Township.
The sheriff's office said Dixon fled on foot during the traffic stop.
As officers chased Dixon, he allegedly turned and shot both police officers.
Both officers were taken to nearby hospitals for their injuries. One officer has been released, while the other officer remains in the hospital.
The sheriff's office said Dixon is charged with one count of attempted murder and two counts of felonious assault.
The FBI is also offering a $25,000 reward, which police said adds to $5,000 contributions from FOP Capital City Lodge, #9, Central Ohio Crime Stoppers and the U.S. Marshals Service.
