A third deputy intervened and fatally shot the suspect. Both injured officers are hospitalized—one scheduled for surgery, the other possibly ready for release by Friday. Sheriff Chad Chronister lauded their bravery and training, calling the swift response what stopped the violence. The full details of the ambush are still under investigation.
