Deputies said the suspect, Cameron Wahpekeche, ran away. He was found four hours later when family members of the victim spotted him holding their stolen duffle bag.
The affidavit said they confronted the suspect and told him to get on the ground.
“He, in fact, had a gun and gun fire ensued. The suspect was shot. They actually at one point were wrestling with the suspect on the ground and more gun shots were fired by the suspect,” said Lt. Hawkins.
Shortly after, deputies and the victim got to the scene.
The affidavit explains that once deputies got there, the suspect ran about 200 yards and then fell into thick brush.
Deputies tackled him and told him to put his hands behind his back, but wouldn’t cooperate. The affidavit also says Wahpekeche tried to bite a deputy’s hand.
In the end, deputies said the victim helped handcuff Wahpekeche and they were able to take him to the hospital before booking him into jail.
