Alexander Kade Lanier, 26, of Greenwood, South Carolina, was killed by officers after a multi-county incident in the early hours of a February morning in 2022 in Oxford, Alabama. Shortly after midnight he allegedly carjacked a vehicle at gunpoint in a Waffle House parking lot. An Oxford officer across the street witnessed the carjacking and began a pursuit of the stolen vehicle.

Lanier led officers on a nearly 20-minute chase during which he fired multiple shots at pursuing officers. The chase ended on Airport Road near Alabama 21, and in the ensuing confrontation officers shot and killed him. The weapon recovered from Lanier was reported to have been stolen. Authorities said he had a lengthy criminal record and had walked away from a court-ordered rehabilitation facility. The St. Clair County Sheriff’s Office was assigned to investigate the officer-involved shooting.

Does anyone have additional local details or saw the incident that could add to the timeline?
