Written by Police in Millis Massachusetts are ordering people to “shelter in place” (a nice way of saying people are confined to their homes) after a police officer found himself in a shootout while driving on Forest road, reports the Milford Daily News. Millis Police Sgt. William Dwyer said at a 5 p.m. press briefing that a man driving a maroon pickup truck, possibly a Ford F150, fired at a police officer on Forest Road. The officer returned fire, firing two or three shots, before the cruiser caught on fire.
The as of yet unnamed police officer involved in the shootout is being evaluated at Norwood Hospital. It is not known if the suspect was hit, Dwyer said.
