A St. Louis prosecutor said that Antonio Taylor shot a Missouri cop twice, once while the officer lay injured on the ground. The attack happened on the afternoon of July 8, just hours after Micah Johnson shot-and-killed six police officers in downtown Dallas during a Black Lives Matter protest. The St. Louis County prosecutor’s office says that Taylor, 31, has been charged with assault of law enforcement officer, armed criminal action and felony in possession.

The officer remains in critical condition.

Here’s what you need to know:

1. The Shooting Has Been Described as an ‘Ambush’ by Officials

St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar told the media on July 8, “Make no mistake, we believe that Ballwin officer was ambushed.” The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch “agreed” with this statement saying, “It was clearly an ambush, an attack. There was no confrontation, no argument, no nothing.”

2. Authorities Have Not Come Forward With a Motive But Have Set Taylor’s Bail at $500,000

3. Taylor Was on Probation on a Weapons Charge at the Time of the Shooting

5. The Town of Ballwin Is Just Over 20 Miles From Ferguson

CLAYTON — A St. Louis man charged with shooting and paralyzing a Ballwin police officer in 2016 has been found mentally unfit to face trial, according to recent court filings in the case.

Antonio R. Taylor, 33, is objecting to an Aug. 8 finding by the Department of Mental Health that he is mentally incompetent to stand trial. Taylor filed a motion Tuesday via his public defender seeking a hearing. That hearing is set for Friday in St. Louis County Circuit Court.

Taylor underwent a mental examination earlier this year to determine if he suffers from mental illness and whether he understands court proceedings. His trial had been set for April but that was delayed when Circuit Judge Nellie Ribaudo ordered a mental evaluation for Taylor.

Taylor's public defender, Beverly Hauber, this week sought to have all court filings related to Taylor's mental exam or notice of Friday's hearing sealed from the public.

Assistant Prosecutor Jason Denney filed a motion Wednesday seeking a second mental health exam for Taylor within 60 days.

Last month, Taylor wrote several letters to the judge seeking the dismissal of his charges and the return of his belongings, including clothing and personal hygiene items. He also sought to fire his public defender and represent himself in court.

In several of his filings, Taylor denies shooting Flamion and calls Flamion "the suspect" who "interfered with my life July 8, 2016."

Taylor’s criminal history in Missouri includes 2011 convictions of unlawful possession of a firearm and resisting arrest. He served 30 months in federal prison for a conviction of being a felon in possession of a gun. Court records also list convictions in California and Oklahoma.
