One deputy with the Kern County Sheriff's Office died, and another was wounded, when a gunman inside a home with two hostages opened fire at them Sunday afternoon in Wasco, Calif.
A source familiar with the shooting, who was not authorized to speak to the media, said the deputy who died was a Marine veteran. The name of the deputy has not been released.
Gunshots could be heard in the background of additional calls as deputies drove to the scene, Swanson said, and there were reports of possible shooting victims inside the home.“The deputies at that time were not struck but took cover,” he said during a news conference. “The entire neighborhood was locked down at that time and the SWAT team was called.”
