Two Chesterfield County, VA, police officers were injured in a shooting on Tuesday night while responding to a report of an "emotionally disturbed person" in the Broadwater Community.

Information suggested that the suspect, who was also shot and is now in custody, attacked one officer while the officer's partner was upstairs interviewing family members.

The officer who was reportedly attacked was shot once in the chest, but his bullet-resistant vest stopped the bullet from entering his body. The second officer ran downstairs and was shot by the suspect in the upper leg, WTVR reports.
