Larry Davis
In November 1987, 19-year-old Larry Davis, the target of the biggest
manhunt in New
York history,
in order to avoid being lynched by the
NYPD, called the press and the
FBI and publicly surrendered
after 17
days on the run.
The police captured Mr. Davis on Dec. 6, 1986. Seventeen days
earlier, he fled a shootout
where
he wounded six officers trying to
arrest him on charges of killing drug dealers.
