The incident occurred on the 990 block of Danville Ct., in Crofton around 4:45 a.m., county police said at a press briefing.

More information was expected to be released in the coming days.

Anne Arundel County Police Chief Amal Awad noted the past few weeks have been a tough time for first responders, citing the death of the three Baltimore firefighters and NYPD's Jason Rivera.

"When one of us falls, we all rise," she said. "We all feel it."

The Maryland Attorney General's Office will investigate, as is the procedure with all police-involved shootings.
