TOPEKA -- Authorities say two Topeka police officers have been shot outside a grocery store and that their injuries appear life-threatening.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that the officers were responding to a report of a suspicious vehicle. Police spokeswoman Kristen Veverka tells the newspaper that the officers “suffered life-threatening gunshot wounds” and were taken to a hospital.
Police Lt. Ron Gish says the officers arrived to the scene outside the grocery store Sunday evening in two separate vehicles.
A third officer who was also there was not injured.
