Reports from local news sources stated that the officer had reportedly attempted to apprehend the suspect when he got into a nearby van and then struck the officer while attempting to flee. The officer then fired his handgun at the van and struck it at least once. It is unknown whether or not the suspect was struck by the gunfire.
Images captured after the incident show that officer involved laying on the ground while being tended to by fellow officers. The officer was later propped up against a bystander vehicle and did not appear to sustain life-threatening injuries.
