Fuguitive wanted by FBI surrenders after manhunt

A fugitive suspected of shooting dead a New York state trooper and wounding two others while on the run for more than five months surrendered to police who had cornered him in a field just over the Pennsylvania border early today.

Ralph “Bucky” Phillips, on the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted list, walked out with his hands up, ending the state’s largest manhunt, New York State Police Investigator Gary Colon said.
