The suspect opened fire on the three of them, striking the officer, who's 34 years old, has eight years of experience with the Milwaukee Police Department. Multiple times the other two officers shot and killed the suspect while returning fire. The officer was rushed to Froedtert Hospital where he underwent emergency surgery. He was conscious but barely, although as he was being wheeled away on a stretcher as paramedics worked on him, he gave his brothers in arms a thumbs up to let them know he would be okay.
