A San Diego police officer wounded last spring in an exchange of gunfire with a fleeing suspect was struck by a round discharged by a fellow officer, SDPD Chief Shelley Zimmerman confirmed Wednesday.
When Fiel -- a suspect in a months-long series of non-injury shootings of buildings in Kearny Mesa -- drew a gun and opened fire on his pursuers, Officers Joshua Hodge and Mario Larrea returned fire.
Fiel died at the scene of the shootout just north of Sharp Memorial Hospital.
Seddon was hospitalized for several days, continued her recovery at home and eventually returned to work, KGTV reports.
