3 ICE Officers Shot in Calif. While Serving Warrants

Three federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers were shot Thursday morning in Petaluma, Calif. while serving high-risk federal warrants, Fox News reported. One suspect is in custody.

The officers involved were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, KGO-TV reported. The warrants were related to an ongoing criminal investigation.

According to KCRA-TV, agents appeared to be serving the warrants at a home behind a hotel around 4:30 a.m. local time. Guests at the hotel reported hearing gunshots and were instructed to stay in their rooms. An all-clear was given around 6 a.m.

At least one officer was believed to have been airlifted from the scene.

Petaluma is approximately 40 miles north of San Francisco.

In an unrelated incident, an ICE agent was killed by a single shot Wednesday night in his home near Los Angeles. The agent's 14-year-old son has been taken into custody.
