Daniel Scott Dan Webster was a 47-year-old Albuquerque Police Department officer shot during a traffic stop on the evening of October 21, 2015. The stop, near Central Avenue and Eubank Boulevard in the International District, was for a motorcycle displaying a stolen license plate. The rider, 34-year-old Davon Lymon, drew a handgun during the stop and Officer Webster was struck and critically wounded.

Despite his injuries, Webster returned fire and wounded Lymon. The suspect fled but was located and taken into custody a few hours after the shooting. Officer Webster was transported to the University of New Mexico Hospital and died of his wounds eight days later on October 29, 2015. Lymon, who had a prior voluntary manslaughter conviction, was charged with Webster’s murder.

Webster was a decorated department veteran and the first Albuquerque officer fatally shot in the line of duty in nearly a decade. Does anyone have additional details about the stop or the manhunt that followed?
