Manhunt in Missouri underway after rookie officer Gary Michael killed during traffic stop

This is a very legit reason for a manhunt compared to a story I posted earlierI hope they catch the perp! 

ABC News reports a manhunt is underway after a rookie police officer was shot and killed at a traffic stop in Clinton, Missouri, police said. 

The officer, Gary Michael, who was with the force less than a year, pulled over a suspicious vehicle around 10:45 p.m. on Sunday, according to Missouri State Highway Patrol Sgt. Bill Lowe. 

When Michael exited his vehicle to initiate contact with the driver, he was shot, Lowe said, adding that the officer fired back but it’s unknown at this time whether the driver was struck. 

Investigators told ABC News Monday that Michael initially pulled over the driver because the vehicle's headlights were off, and once Michael ran the plates, he discovered the vehicle's plates were also expired.
