“One of our officers was injured as a result of this investigation. He is currently at our local hospital, and he is in stable condition,” says Const. Bianca Jackson.
Police say the male ESU officer sustained an injury to the arm. How the injury was sustained is under investigation.
“It's hard to tell whether it occurred during the arrest, or whether it occurred in the commencement of the arrest. We're not too sure exactly at this point. So that will all come out in the investigation,” said Jackson.
She says the initial investigation that led to the arrest started in February.
