A suspect captured after a man and two police officers were shot has been charged with second-degree assault and three counts of attempted murder.
Demetruis Keith, 28, was booked into the Montgomery County Detention Facility Monday afternoon on the charges.
Montgomery police responded to the 3700 block of Lower Wetumpka Road on Saturday about 2 p.m. and found a man suffering from a life-threatening gunshot wound. According to Keith s charging documents, the victim suffered gunshot wounds to the right chest wall, right thigh and left wrist.
Officers determined there was a secondary scene in the 3000 block of Tyler Court, Lt. Jarrett Williams said Saturday, about 400 feet through backyards from the initial scene. It was there that police exchanged gunfire with Keith.

Apr. 23 The kids haven t even seen the new place yet.
Their mom is certain they ll love it. I think they ll be excited, Elaine told me on Tuesday, one of the 28-year-old bank teller s days off.
For the last four years, Elaine who asked to be identified by a different name to maintain her family s privacy has been living with her two young sons at her mom s house in Puyallup. Sharing a single bedroom, it s been a circumstance of necessity for the single mother. When rent at her former apartment climbed too high, Elaine and her kids were priced out, becoming statistics of the regional housing affordability crisis we hear so much about.
