Update as of a few ago. Both Deputies were wearing their vests. Mike took three shots, two hitting the vest and bruising the heck out of him, the third hit him in the hip and exited the buttocks. He'll be fine.
Paul took one hit just below the bottom edge of his vest in the abdomen and a second shot (or two) in the arm/elbow/hand area shattering his elbow. Paul is out of surgery and will recover well.
The suspect drew a weapon from his waist as he was being placed against the marked unit turned and fired.
Deputies returned fire and Mike apparently reloaded and fired two last rounds as the suspect was still reaching for the 45. Rumor says the shots struck the shooter in the head ending the engagement.
