A jury in Atlantic County has convicted a man charged with shooting two Egg Harbor Township police officers and firing at a third.
Twenty-nine-year-old Christopher Blank of Egg Harbor Township was found guilty Tuesday of all counts against him, including three counts of attempted murder.
The shooting took place after a traffic stop on the Black Horse Pike on July 13, 2006.
Officers Christopher Leary and Clear Constantino were wounded after a scuffle with the suspect, who also fired at a third officer and missed.
Blank was captured five hours later in nearby woods. He faces up to 60 years in prison at sentencing. |
