The manhunt for Floyd Ray Cook, the Marion County native accused of shooting a Tennessee officer and firing at a Kentucky State Trooper Saturday, is now focused in Tennessee, where police say two people opened fire on officers Wednesday night.
Authorities searching for Cook say they tried to pull over a man and Katie McCarty in White House, Tennessee.

Investigators originally believed the man was Cook, but now say they aren’t sure if it was Cook or his alleged accomplice, Troy Wayne. Officers say during the stop, the pair opened fire, tried to speed away but crashed and ran away.
After several hours of searching the surrounding area, police say they found McCarty in a field covered in mud. The man who was with her remains on the run.
Police are warning people in White House near I-65 to lock their doors as they search for the man. He is considered armed and dangerous.
Investigators statewide, with help from the U.S. Marshals and the FBI, have been searching for Cook since Saturday, when he allegedly shot a Tennessee police officer and fired shots at a Kentucky State Trooper.
