A man was injured in an officer-involved shooting Thursday in Sauk Centre, MN, after a Stearns County sheriff's deputy was shot in the arm by an arrow, according to Stearns County Sheriff Don Gudmundson.
The sheriff told KTSP a stolen pickup from Osakis was driven into Sauk Centre shortly after 10 a.m. Gudmundson said the vehicle struck a building, drove through backyards and struck parked cars.
The truck then smashed into a garage on 10th Street, where the suspect then ran into the home. Gudmundson said no one was in the home at the time.
