Captain Tillman shared that officers located a "front loader construction type vehicle" upon their arrival, which they attempted to stop. At this time, HPD is unsure how the suspect was able to turn on the vehicle.
The suspect then tried to run over an officer "numerous times" before hitting two patrol vehicles, Captain Tillman said.
According to HPD, this collision is what prompted two officers to fire on the driver of the construction vehicle, striking them once in the arm and the leg.
The unidentified suspect was taken into custody and sent to a nearby hospital. Two officers were also hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.
"I just want to say to the officers involved — I'm very proud and happy that they're not injured." — Captain Haven Tillman
Additional information, as well as bodyworn camera footage, will be available during a press conference next week, Captain Tillman shared.
