Summary: |
Assistant Chief Clyde Gulley succumbed to a gunshot wound sustained three weeks earlier while attempting an arrest an escaped convict from Tennessee, and two of his companions, near Eighth Street and Avondale Avenue.
He and another police officer were notified that the group had struck a nearby filling station with a stolen vehicle. When they arrived at the scene, they found the men attempting to flee on foot towards a mountain.
The suspects immediately opened fire on the officers as they exited their car, striking Assistant Chief Gulley in the abdomen. Both officers returned fire, killing one of the men and wounding the other two.
Assistant Chief Gulley was taken to the Middlesboro Hospital where he succumbed to his wounds three weeks later.
The assistant chief had served with the Middlesboro Police Department for 14 years. He was survived by his wife, mother, and two brothers.
