The Latest: Jacksonville shooting leaves 2 officers injured
KISSIMMEE, Fla. (AP) — The Latest on police officers shot in Florida (all times local):
2:55 a.m.
Authorities say two officers who were shot and wounded had responded to reports of an attempted suicide at a home in the northern Florida city of Jacksonville where three other people were thought to be in danger inside.
Sheriff's Office Director Mike Bruno says a team of officers heard gunshots inside and feared "an active shooter situation" so they approached the house. He says the suspect then came out firing a high-powered rifle. He was shot and killed, and two of the police officers were wounded in that exchange of fire.
Bruno says the three other people in the house were safe.
