Kenner Police say the suspect suddenly appeared with a rifle, shooting the three officers. One was hit in the arm, one in the leg and one in the stomach.
Local media is saying shots were fired in the area, but it is unclear whether the shots were fired by the subject before police arrived or in an exchange of fire with officers, or both.
Charlotte Mecklenburg Police said the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force, made up of multiple agencies, was attempting to serve a warrant when it engaged in gunfire with a subject.
