Thurston County felon booked into WA jail after multi-state search

Damien Madison, the man arrested in a multi-state manhunt for allegedly shooting at Washington deputies, was booked into Thurston County Jail.

THURSTON COUNTY, Wash. - Damien Madison, the man arrested in a multi-state manhunt for allegedly shooting at Washington deputies, was booked into Thurston County Jail.

The backstory:

The search for Madison spanned just under a week, when he was arrested near the California/Nevada border on May 13. The 10-time convicted felon has since been extradited back to Washington, now jailed on two counts of first-degree assault, first-degree unlawful possession of a firearm, first-degree malicious mischief, and drive-by shooting.

Madison is expected in court Wednesday afternoon.

The Thurston County Sheriff says Madison fired an AR-15 towards a deputy during a pursuit in Tenino, hitting the patrol car's windshield and disabling the vehicle.

FBI agents apprehended Madison after using a "grappler" on his vehicle near Jean, Nevada. Madison's mother was also with him and taken into custody. She and three others are accused of helping Madison escape.
