A 16-year-old is at a juvenile detention center in Seminole County after officers arrested him this morning for allegedly shooting a Sanford police officer last week.
Officers arrested the suspect in the Pine Hills neighborhood of Orange County at 1 a.m.
Investigators said tips led them to a home on Mercy Drive, where he had been staying with his two sisters.
Detectives said more than a dozen U.S. Marshals, Orlando police and Orange County deputies surrounded the home before arresting the suspect.
The Orlando Sentinel is not identifying the suspect because he is a minor.
He faces charges of attempted murder of a law-enforcement officer in the shooting of Sanford Officer Brandon Worrall. He is being held without bond at the Seminole Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Sanford.
"It's a little disheartening, you know," Sanford police Chief Brian Tooley said at a news conference this morning. "You got 16-year-old kids out there shooting a police officer."
