Search ends for armed and dangerous suspect after suspect kills himself, hostage
WSMV ^

BEECHGROVE, TN (WSMV) - The search has ended for an "armed and dangerous" suspect after a deadly shooting on Interstate 24 Sunday morning in Coffee County.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says the suspect, 29-year-old Dangelo Dorsey of St. Louis, MO, is no longer a threat to public safety after a brief chase along I-24 east.

Investigators say the incident all began around 9:30 a.m. when Dorsey opened fire inside a vehicle traveling westbound on Interstate 24 near Beechgrove in Coffee County. One person was shot and injured in that vehicle while a second occupant, identified as Darcey Johnson, 28, was shot and killed.

Immediately following, traffic in the area stopped, and Dorsey attempted to carjack a nearby driver and, in the process, fired into her vehicle, striking her in the hand. A truck driver in that same immediate area also sustained a gunshot wound to the face.

From there, Dorsey carjacked a Ford Mustang, and ordered the two people inside – who area church members identified as Phillip and Aileen Stevens – to drive him to their home in Morrison.

When they arrived, it appears Dorsey took two additional firearms from the home, swapped vehicles to a blue Toyota Rav4, and forced the couple to accompany him.

Philip Stevens, 23, was reported dead after Dorsey shot him and forced him from the vehicle onto the side of I-24 at exit 111-B.

Shortly after 3:30 p.m., Dorsey was located in the vehicle traveling eastbound on I-24. A brief chase ensued, reaching speeds of approximately 100 miles an hour and at approximately 3:45 pm resulted in a crash, where Dorsey flipped the Rav4.

Aileen Stevens was found safe in the backseat of the vehicle.

Dorsey was believed to be traveling through the area and may have had a connection with the hostage killed and left on the Interstate.

Agents are also investigating multiple carjackings in surrounding counties that may be related.

"Local News Only" because it doesn't fit the MSM narrative.

Mrs. Stevens is pregnant; I believe it’s their first child.

A Go Fund Me account set up for the Stevens family had raised $10,430 as of Monday morning. It can be found at https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-for-the-stevens

She’s a kindergarten teacher. Now her husband is dead and the trauma she will have to endure is inexpressible.

There are monsters among us. At least this one is no longer among us.

FTA: Dorsey was believed to be traveling through the area and may have had a connection with the hostage killed and left on the Interstate.

That would require some explaining. Dorsey hijacked people in a random car that stopped after the shooting. It would be extremely unusual if he knew, or had a connection, to the man he hijacked. Unless it is Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon.

All of them? A better question would be, how many Freepers will support him and what he did and mourn for him by continuing to watch and support the NFL? I would be willing to go out on a limb and say the NFL will lose no supporters or watchers. The addiction is strong and hard to break.

Meanwhile, Jacob Blake has netted nearly $2.3 million and climbing.

From what I’ve seen, it started when he was a passenger in a vehicle and opened fire, killing one. They must have stopped then he tried carjacking two people and ended up shooting them-one in face and one in hand. He got another vehicle, rear ended the married couple, went to their house, swapped vehicles, then later shot the husband and dumped his body off I24?

Yes! I read that, and then our intrepid journalist just dropped the topic. Did this come from the hostages wife? Or is the journalist confusing the first shooting victim with the later hostage?

That said, what an evil monster.
