3 Arrested in Connection to Shooting of 2 Massachusetts Police Officers

Police have arrested three individuals in connection to a shootout in Falmouth, MA, that left Officers Donald DeMiranda and Ryan Moore injured on Friday afternoon.

The gun battle broke out after Officers DeMiranda and Moore responded to a disturbance call. Investigators said that 21-year-old Malik Antonio Koval "produced a gun and began shooting at the officers." Officers returned fire, striking Koval several times.

During the gunfight, shots struck Moore in the neck, causing a grazing wound, and DeMiranda was struck in the chest—the bullet was reportedly stopped by his ballistic vest. Officers DeMiranda and Moore are both in good condition, according to MassLive .

In addition to arresting Koval—the main suspect who allegedly shot the officers—police also arrested 38-year-old Kimberly Koval and 18-year-old Marcus Maseda, who allegedly interfered with the officers.

Kimberly Koval and Maseda were charged with the obstruction of justice, interfering with the duties of a police officer, and assault and battery on a police officer.
