2 Waterloo police officers injured in shooting, suspect is dead [Video]

WATERLOO, Iowa — Two Waterloo police officers were wounded and a suspect was killed in a shooting Sunday morning near a park in Waterloo.

Police responded to a report of a man with a gun riding a bike in a neighborhood near just before 8:30 a.m. near the 200 block of Manson Street.

Plain fled from officers on a bike before taking off on foot through the park. Law enforcement fired a taser at Plain, knocking him to the ground. 

While he was down, Plain allegedly fired the gun at the officers, hitting one who was inside their vehicle and the other who was on foot.

The officers then shot at Plain, killing him, the DCI said.

The two wounded officers were taken to a local hospital and one is expected to be released from the hospital on Monday.
