A San Diego police officer was shot and
wounded Sunday morning in the Kearny Mesa neighborhood.
The officer was taken to a hospital with
a wound to her neck or shoulder, police said. Her name was not released.
Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman said the
officer was shot at least once. The wound is not life-threatening, she said.
Lt. Mike Hastings of the homicide squad
said that the incident occured around 7:40 a.m. with a high-speed freeway chase
involving several officers. The driver was considered a suspect in a string of
shootings at businesses in recent weeks, police said.
The driver left his car and fired at
least once at officers. Two officers returned fire, killing him, Hastings said.
"The officer is in good
spirits, doing well and appreciates the good wishes of the entire
community," Zimmerman told reporters outside the hospital.
The wounded officer is a five-year
veteran and assigned as a training officer. She had a trainee with her during
the incident, Zimmerman said.
