A fleeing masked teen suspected in an earlier shooting during an attempted robbery was wounded by Connecticut police after opening fire at officers during an incident that was captured by body-worn cameras.

The Officer of the Inspector General released footage of the June 24 shooting involving New Britain police. A 17-year-old male is expected to survive after being struck by return fire from a detective during a foot chase.

According to the Inspector General, the incident happened just before 3 p.m. after reports of a gunfire at a home, the New Haven Register reports. When officers arrived at the scene, they found spent shell casings on the street and bullet holes on the home's exterior.

Shortly after that, police received another call concerning two suspicious males in masks and hoodies. Responding officers tried to stop two males matching the description, but the pair fled on foot.

An officer on a bicycle and three officers in an unmarked cruiser chased after the two suspects. During the pursuit, the officers in the cruiser exited their vehicle and took up the chase on foot through a parking lot.

That's when one of the suspects began shooting at police. Plainclothes Det. Jeffrey Nedderman, who was unable to pull on his ballistic vest that included his body-worn camera, returned fire, striking the shooter multiple times.

The wounded 17-year-old suspect was rushed to the hospital and underwent surgery. He's expected to survive his injuries.

Officer Joseph Milhomens, who was on a bicycle, was able to chase down and tackle the second suspect, identified as 18-year-old Ossain Gayle. Police recovered a handgun with a high-capacity magazine from Gayle, and a handgun and spent shell casings were recovered next to the shot 17-year-old suspect.

The 17-year-old was charged with criminal attempt at assault in the first degree, unlawful discharge of a firearm and other offenses. Gayle also faces multiple charges, including illegal possession of a firearm and possession of a high-capacity magazine.
