Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Muscatine, IA Police Department tonight as one of their officers has been shot after a vehicle pursuit. Reports state the officer is in stable condition. The suspect, identified as Mark Lee Jackson, is still at large in the south end of Muscatine and residents are being asked to shelter in place.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™Heavenly Father,
We lift up our Muscatine officer during this difficult time. Surround them with Your protection, strength, and peace. Guide the hands that care for them, comfort their family, and bring healing and safety.

In Your Holy name, Amen.๐Ÿ’™
