Several officers on a task force trying to serve a warrant in a suburban Charlotte, North Carolina, neighborhood were shot Monday afternoon, police said.
Officers from several agencies in the U.S. Marshals Task Force were carrying out the operation in a suburban neighborhood when “a subject” began firing at them and multiple officers were shot, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said in a post on X.
Gunfire continued for several minutes. A SWAT team was in the neighborhood on the east side of the city, police said.
Nearly two hours after the shooting started, police said the scene was still unsafe and promised an update with more information “as soon as the situation stabilizes.”
Authorities did not say exactly how many officers were struck by gunfire. WSOC-TV said their helicopter captured an armored vehicle driving through yards and knocking over recycling bins before officers removed a person with blood on their shirt who was then loaded into an ambulance.
Many roads in the area were closed so ambulances could get to hospitals faster. TV footage showed ambulances speeding to hospitals with several vehicles with sirens on both in front and behind them.
Your thread title makes it sound like the law enforcement officers shot the U.S. Marshals directly.
Apologies - I did not word or punctuate the title very well.
Fake & gey.
Suspect shot the Marshals and police - who are in the hospital - pray
