By Monday morning, police and city officials had no updated information available to share as a New Bern officer remained hospitalized after a Friday night gunfire exchange.

Officers said 22-year-old Alexander Thalmann was one of two policemen shot by a suspect during a foot chase in New Bern Friday night.

Chief Toussaint Summers Jr. said both Thalmann and Officer Justin Wester were hit in a gunfire exchange with 35-year-old Bryan Stallings.
Officials with Camp Lejeune told WITN Thalmann is a Lance Corporal with the Marine Corps Forces Reserve. We’re told that Thalmann is a warehouseman with the Combat Logistic Battalion 451 out of Raleigh.

A family friend said Thalmann has served two tours of duty in Afghanistan. Officials did not have information on how long Thalmann has served, but said it was within four years.
