Police say he was wanted for selling drugs.
The detective was listed in stable condition at a hospital.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
There is no phone listing for a Bryan McMenamin in Glendale.

Very nice, America doing all their law-enforcement stuff. But are there no laws against kidnappings?! Against terrorists?! Protecting citizens?! Providing aid to allies?! Is a drug suspect car thief striking a policeman worse a crime than terrorists kidnapping 3 harmless defenceless kids?! Very nice, Mr. President, go about all your law-enforcement stuff, but enforce the right laws!! Chase after the real criminals, the big fish!
GET YOUR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT, OBAMA!
