Buffalo police search for surgeon to question him about fatal hospital shooting

BUFFALO, N.Y. –  Police scoured the Buffalo area Thursday morning, searching for an award-winning trauma surgeon and former military weapons expert to question him about the fatal shooting of a receptionist at the hospital where they worked.

City police spokesman Michael DeGeorge wouldn't divulge details of the search, where police were focused or how many officers were involved. He only said the search for 49-year-old Timothy Jorden was extensive and ongoing. Police say Jorden may be armed and should be considered dangerous.

Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda was expected to give an update on the killing by noon.

On Thursday morning, there were no memorials and no sign of Wednesday's violence at the Erie County Medical Center, where 33-year-old Jacqueline Wisniewski was gunned down in a stairwell.

Jorden, who has been licensed to practice medicine in New York for a decade, has served as a role model for black youth in Buffalo, people who know him told the Buffalo News.

Sounds like the guy may be suffering from some mental problems or something. If they take him alive I wonder if his defense will be related to Post traumatic stress disorder from his time in the service.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — The search is over for a former Army weapons expert and well-respected Buffalo, N.Y, trauma surgeon wanted for fatally shooting his ex-girlfriend.
Police say Dr. Timothy Jorden killed himself with a gunshot to the head. His body was found today in thick brush a half-mile from his Lake Erie shoreline home.
Police say he shot Jacqueline Wisniewski on Wednesday.

I think the couple had broken up according to a story I read and he didn't take it well obviously. I am sure people in the area are glad that he was found, not that he was found dead, but that they don't have to worry about him being on the loose. Sad that he felt he had to take the ex-girlfriend with him.
