Police in Tennessee say a man listed in a database as an Aryan Nations gang member shot an officer and is on the run.
Knoxville Police Chief David Rausch tells news outlets the man opened fire on Officer David Williams with a shotgun Thursday night as Williams attempted to stop him for speeding. Williams suffered a wound to his shoulder. The suspect is identified as 31-year-old Ronnie Lucas Wilson.
Rausch said the officer is not believed to have fired his weapon.

KPD: Officer-involved shooting suspect traveling with woman who's 'in danger'

Wilson on Facebook has posted photos of himself shirtless, showing off a large swastika tattoo on his chest and, on his stomach, a Celtic cross with different images in each quadrant and the words "White Pride Worldwide" around the outside. He also posted in October 2017 the two photos of himself and the Nova that KPD released Thursday night.
According to the Anti-Defamation League's website, that Celtic cross image is the main symbol for the Aryan Nations, described as "the largest white supremacist prison gang in Tennessee."
