2 Philadelphia police officers, suspect shot after pursuit and shootout

Two Philadelphia police officers assigned to highway patrol are expected to recover after being shot during a shootout with a suspect early Sunday morning.

One officer was struck in the ankle and a bullet grazed him in the head. The other officer suffered a grazing wound to his nose. 

"Yet again, our brave @PhillyPolice officers have come under fire in service to our city," Interim Philadelphia Police Commissioner John M. Stanford, Jr. said on X. "While we are grateful that they will physically recover from their gunshot wounds, I ask that you keep our two officers, their families, and their coworkers in your prayers."
