A police officer was flown to the hospital after being shot in Anson County (NC) Tuesday night.

According to WBTV, the incident happened near Myrtlewood housing on Myrtlewood Drive.

The Wadesboro Police Department was involved in a pursuit with a vehicle when one suspect in that vehicle shot at law enforcement, striking an officer.

The officer was airlifted by a medical helicopter to the hospital.
