ambushed two deputies during a welfare check Friday night, killing a military veteran and injuring a second officer.<\/p>\n<p>Carroll County Sheriff\u2019s Office deputy Logan Utt, 31, was\u00a0killed in the attack, according to Carroll County Sheriff Kevin Kemp.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The US Marshals Service is offering a $10,000 reward for suspect Michael Puckett.<\/p>\n<p>The deadly encounter unfolded just before 9:30 p.m. local time, when the two Carroll County deputies were dispatched to a home after a family member requested a welfare check.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When the deputies met with Puckett, he allegedly opened fire, killing Utt and wounding the second officer \u2014 whose\u00a0life was saved by his\u00a0ballistic vest, according to authorities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The deputies returned fire, but Puckett fled the scene and remains at large.<\/p>\n<p>The sheriff\u2019s office warned the public not to approach him and call 911 immediately if he is spotted.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Utt joined the force in 2023 after serving the nation as a military veteran.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><button class=\"button button--modal-trigger\" aria-label=\"Open the image in a
