A pair of police officers were shot just before a home went up in flames in East Lansdowne on Wednesday, Feb. 7, multiple outlets report.
Citing District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer, 6abc says the officers were called to the home at Baltimore Pike and Lewis Avenue on reports of a child shot, when they were struck by gunfire.
The suspect ran inside of the home and 15 minutes later, a fire was started from inside, according to the 6abc report.
One Lansdowne officer and one East Lansdowne officer are hospitalized and being treated for "non-life-threatening injuries," LPD said. Both are reportedly in stable condition.
"We are not releasing the names of the officers at this time," the department said around 6 p.m. Wednesday. "We will have another update shortly."
