Editor's note: Police now say the photo released by the department Thursday morning does not show the suspect. Officials attributed the mistake to false information given by a witness, and it has been removed from this story.

BAKER - Authorities are looking for a man who allegedly opened fire on a police officer overnight.

The Baker Police Department says the attack happened around 12:30 a.m after the officer pulled over the person's vehicle for a faulty taillight on Plank Road. The driver allegedly ran away and fired a shot at the officer.
