TX: Gunfight, Off Duty Officer Shoots Suspect Shooting into Occupied Vehicle



According to Capt. Chris Jett of the Burnet County Sheriff’s Office, the unnamed officer was driving home around 10:11 p.m. in the 12000 block of FM 1431 when he came across a man firing a gun into a vehicle. The officer exchanged gunfire with the man before hitting him twice.

Neighbors said the shots sounded like fireworks. Those who called 911 said deputies arrived very quickly to assist the off-duty officer, who was not injured.

The 55-year-old suspect was found unconscious in the brush and was taken by helicopter to Dell Seton Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries and was in stable condition Friday morning.

“From what I understand the facts to be, our detective saved lives last night,” Manley said.
