Two Grand Rapids police officers, a field training officer and a new recruit are patrolling the area when the suspect, an 18-year-old man known to police as a suspect in a firearm theft, walked down the street. The officers parked their patrol car and got out to initiate a conversation. >> Here, my buddy. >> Yeah, I talk to you. Keep your hand out of your pocket. >> Come here. >> Initially, the suspect kept walking away. He then suddenly turned around, pulled out a gun, and fired four shots toward the officers. >> They returned fire. One officer fired seven rounds and the other fired two rounds. >> Are you hit? You're hit? >> No. Are you hit? The officer's patrol car was hit by at least one bullet, flattening a tire. A nearby home was also struck. >> Reloading. Traffic first. Careful. Come here, buddy.
