Synopsis:
On 1-1-2013 at approximately 4:30 PM two subjects were
sitting in a vehicle in the 400 block of Thayer Drive. The two observed a passenger car pull over
close to their location and watched as Linderman got out of the car and began walking
towards them. Linderman is the
ex-boyfriend of the female driver. The two saw Linderman pull out a dark
colored semi-automatic handgun and point it at them. The two victims attempted to leave the area
in their car. As the vehicle was leaving, the passenger ducked down in the seat, heard a gunshot and saw smoke after
he sat up and looked in the direction of Linderman. The
driver also reported seeing Linderman holding a semi-auto pistol.
After firing at the couple, Linderman got back into the
passenger car and fled northbound on Thayer Dr.
The victim’s parents were inside a residence directly adjacent to the
victim vehicle and reported hearing what they believed to be a gunshot.
No shell casing or bullet impact point has been located by
investigators but independent witnesses have confirmed at least one shot was
fired. Neither victim was injured.
Linderman has made statements that he will not be sent back to jail. He should be considered armed and dangerous.
A photo of Linderman is attached. If anyone has information on his location
they are asked to contact the Richland Police Department at 509-628-0333.
Contact Capt. Mike Cobb, 942-7362 for additional
information.
