Vicky White hospitalized after shooting herself, fugitive in custody after chase

Alabama fugitive Casey White and corrections officer Vicky White are in custody, and she is hospitalized after shooting herself, authorities said late Monday afternoon.

The pair were taken into custody after a chase in Evansville, Indiana, and their vehicle crashed, officials said.

The U.S. Marshals told CNN that Vicky White’s injury was a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

No law enforcement officers fired any shots, according to Lauderdale, Alabama, County Sheriff Rick Singleton.

A tip from the public led to the capture and arrest, he said. The tip came Sunday night, Singleton said.

The pair was located at a hotel and then a vehicle pursuit ensued, he said.

The sheriff said the Whites, who are not related, will be brought back to Alabama for arraignment.
