CALEDONIA, Wis. (AP) — Authorities say an undercover sheriff's investigator who was wounded in an exchange of gunfire that killed a homicide suspect at a Wisconsin gas station is recovering at a hospital after being shot at least twice.
Racine County Sheriff Christopher Schmaling says the investigator, whose name hasn't been released, wanted to know as he was being treated whether his gunfire had injured any innocent bystanders.
No one else was hurt as he brought down the suspect in Caledonia on Tuesday at the Mobil station. The Journal Times reports the sheriff detailed Tuesday's chain of events to the Racine County Board.
Authorities say the homicide suspect had fatally shot a man at a Pilot Travel Center gas station about 2 miles away before encountering the investigator at the Mobil station.
