An Alabama police officer was shot and killed Sunday while following up on an investigation in Mobile and a suspect is in custody, police revealed. Mobile Police Officer Sean Tuder "was doing some follow-up work on an investigation and was gunned down by a suspect" at the Peach Place Inn in West Mobile, Police Chief Lawrence Battiste told reporters. Tuder's death came almost a year after the Mobile Police Department lost another officer, Justin Billa, who was fatally shot while attempting to arrest a man who had killed his wife. He noted that helping police identify "bad seeds" and those "wreaking the most havoc in their community" could help. "Keep us in your prayers, keep Officer Tuder's family in your prayers, his wife, his mom and dad, his in-laws," Battiste said.
