“The two men got out of the car with handguns drawn and pulled masks over their faces,” Sgt. Philip Krynsky said. “Through the rearview mirror the detective was able to see the actions of the two males and began to put on her police ballistic vest and draw her handgun.”
A Phoenix Police officer has been rushed to the hospital after being shot, the department said. The incident happened in south Phoenix near 39th Avenue and Baseline Road.
"We know we have a problem in the city of Phoenix with our roads and dangerous intersections." 7th Avenue and Southern is one of the intersections at scrutiny.
