Two other officers were injured in a patrol car crash while responding to the call, and all injured officers were rushed to hospitals.
One Mobile police officer was wounded and two other officers were injured Sunday when a man barricaded himself inside a residence.
The incident began just before 10 a.m. Sunday when officers responded to a report of shots fired in the 100 block of Tuscaloosa Street, according to a Mobile police statement.
When officers arrived, a man inside the home began shooting, according to the statement from Police Chief William Jackson. “One officer was struck by gunfire and transported to a local hospital where he is currently undergoing surgery for his injuries,” the chief said.
More officers responded as the man barricaded himself inside the home and continued to fire shots at officers.
About 12 p.m., the man and a woman exited the home without further incident, Jackson said.
Justin Senia, 40, and Arielle Perreault, 34, were arrested and transported to Metro Jail.
Two other officers were also injured when their patrol car was involved in a traffic accident on the way to the shooting scene, Jackson said. Both officers were transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, he said.
