Police: Former inmate shoots correctional officer outside bar

York Daily RecordA former inmate shot a correctional officer who guarded him at York County Prison when the two happened to meet at a Manchester Township club Saturday morning, according to court documents.

A fight between David Whitcomb, the correctional officer, and Craig A. Lewis Jr., the former inmate, began at 1:48 a.m. inside Piazza Romana, 2350 N. George St. in Manchester Township, police said.

When bouncers pushed the fight outside, Lewis, 21, of the 200 block of Chestnut Street, York, shot Whitcomb, 26, in the abdomen, according to charging documents.

Police said that, through their investigation, they learned Lewis "was an inmate in the York County Prison where David Whitcomb is a correctional officer. In addition, the blocks worked by Whitcomb were those Lewis was housed," according to charging documents.

Lewis was sentenced to 9-23 months in May 2010 for burglary and related offenses and was paroled in March 2010, according to court records.

Northern York County Regional Police arrested Lewis at 11:30 p.m. Saturday. He was arraigned at Central Booking on charges attempted homicide, simple assault, reckless endangerment and aggravated assault.

As of Sunday afternoon, Lewis was in York County Prison in lieu of $100,000 bail, and Whitcomb was in satisfactory condition at York Hospital. continue reading...
