A state parole agent was shot and killed in Oakland on Thursday, and a suspect was arrested following an intense manhunt, authorities said.

A parole agent for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation was shot and killed in the line of duty on Thursday, according to Governor Gavin Newsom and the CDCR. The suspected shooter has been detained.

The man who was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder was reportedly paroled in January after serving more than two years for a stabbing near the Lakeshore area.
