DUI Stop -- Officer Shot
|
A Santa Monica police officer stopped a vehicle for a DUI check. When the officer administered the sobriety test, the passenger shot the officer in the abdomen, just missing his bullet-proof vest.
The officer shot back at the gunman, but was unable to capture him at first. At approximately 5:10 a.m., the police found the suspect and engaged in another shoot-out. The gunman was hit and hospitalized.
The officer who was shot, was hospitalized and is said to be in good condition. The suspect's condition, however, is uncertain.
Driving under the influence is charged when law enforcement suspects that you are under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. During this questioning you may be asked to perform field sobriety tests, along with urine or blood/breath tests to determine your BAC (blood alcohol content). Anytime your BAC is 0.08% or higher you are considered above the legal limit and determined to be intoxicated.
