| [FoxNews] Multiple deputies were shot Wednesday while serving warrants and a protective order at a home in rural Pittsylvania County, Virginia. The shooting was confirmed by Rep. John McGuire, R-Va., on social media. "My thoughts and prayers are with the deputies who were shot in Pittsylvania County, as well as their families," McGuire said in a post on X. "We are closely following the situation and keeping everyone affected in our hearts during this difficult time." Pennsylvania County Sheriff Mike Taylor said officers were met with gunfire when they approached the home and called for backup. Two deputies were hit by shrapnel and another was taken to ED out of an "abundance of caution" but has since been released, Taylor said. A standoff ensued before the suspect eventually gave up and came out of the house on his own. The suspect, James Andru Lehnerd was taken into custody and is awaiting charges. A large police presence remained at the scene late Wednesday in Gretna, near the border between North Carolina and Virginia. |
