About seven minutes later, a second call was received from a neighbor who reported hearing gunshots and said there was a suspect outside who told her to call police. Officials said officers arrived at the same time and immediately started taking fire. Police said the suspect, who has not yet been identified, was waiting for the officers to arrive to shoot at them.

No officers were injured in the shooting with the suspect. However, the officer's vehicle did sustain seven shots from multiple caliber weapons.
