While investigating the sounds, they came across a suspicious vehicle that fled
the area.
A vehicle pursuit ensued and the fleeing vehicle crashed a short time later on Craig.
The people in the car fled the crash and one fired upon an officer as he drove on scene.
The injured officer was transported to Parkview hospital with a gun shot wound. Police say the officer was shot in the shoulder. His injuries are serious but he is in stable condition.
Police are also trying to confirm whether a second officer involved shooting is related to this case.
