FULL TITLE: Captured alive: Bloodied Orlando 'cop killer' who murdered veteran female officer at a Walmart is arrested by cops after a week on the run
Video of a bloodied suspect wanted in the murder of an Orlando police officer has emerged as he was apprehended after a nine-day manhunt on Tuesday evening.
The Orlando Police Department tweeted Tuesday night that 41-year-old Markeith Loyd was in custody, ending a laborious search that began with the January 9 fatal shooting of Lt. Debra Clayton outside a Walmart store.
Loyd was wanted in connection to the murder of his pregnant ex-girlfriend, and shot dead Lt. Clayton when she spotted and approached him. Another officer, Deputy Norman Lewis, was killed in a motorcycle accident when he joined in the manhunt for Loyd.
Local television stations showed Loyd with a bloodied face when a half-dozen officers and deputies took him into police headquarters, as he told a crowd that authorities had 'beat him up'.

I’ll bet he wanted to go to college.... he was such a sweet boy.... he just found Jesus.
No....he cut himself shaving...kick his _______ and then hang ‘em!!
Where is Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson & Co. to yell “Police Brutality”!!!?
Florida has the death penalty. Too bad it will take decades to actually get rid of this POS. Wish he hadn’t been taken alive.
They'll probably surface on this one... after they're done protesting Trump's inauguration.
Hope he falls down a few more times...
He shouldn’t be able to walk with crushed testicles. They took it easy on him.
Good. Everything.
I’m shocked he’s still 98.6
He loves little kittens and puppies.
And under the felony murder rule he can be charged with the second officers death as well. Not that it matters. Florida has the death penalty. One death is enough to put a needle in his arm.

I hope this provides some measure of comfort to Officer Clayton’s family.
And Sade Dixon's.
OMG...he;s BLACK!! A Black Cop-Killer!! I am shocked!
just when he was turning his lfe around.
Waiting for one of his relatives to be in front of a camera tomorrow...”he dinnindu nuffin”
while in jail or prison how will this slug be treated?
By inmates like a hero for offing a cop?
Like crap by the guards?
Like a pariah by the inmates?
Just wondering?
Some news stories said the community was glad he got caught, he was that feared.
Doubt that this clown will be visiting Disney Land any time soon..
Markeith killed people whom the Black community knew, such as a pregnant Black girlfriend and a Black woman cop. The area that he was hiding in is also a long-settled Black neighborhood that is in the heart of Black Orlando.
