The Houston Police Department said in a statement that the suspect fled a scene south of the city’s downtown in a white Mercedes.
The officers were in stable condition, the department said. A motive for the shooting also wasn’t known, though NBC affiliate KPRC reported that it occurred after a pursuit.
The incident involved multiple scenes, according to the station.
KPRC reported that a series of loud bangs could be heard at one of the scenes and officers could be seen retrieving their weapons from their patrol vehicles.
