Waters. Each of the officers returned fire, killing the suspect, he said.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/crime\/police-and-law-enforcement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">injured officer<\/a> suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was transported to the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am fortunate that we didn\u2019t lose an officer tonight,&#8221; Sheriff Waters said at a press conference Friday evening.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/florida-police-unit-seizes-enough-fentanyl-kill-1-5-million-adults\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FLORIDA POLICE UNIT SEIZES ENOUGH FENTANYL TO KILL 1.5 MILLION ADULTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The sheriff opened the press conference by saying officers often hope to return home safely and that this incident was a good example of such an evening.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People think it\u2019s a clich\u00e9 that officers just want to go home safely every night but there\u2019s no further testament like what happened tonight,&#8221; Waters said.<\/p>\n<p>Waters explained the shooting was the culmination of investigative efforts that started at 5:30 p.m., when officers received calls of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/crime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">possible burglary<\/a> at a residence &#8220;very close&#8221; to the eventual shooting. The shooting was &#8220;about two blocks&#8221; away from the initial residence, Waters said later.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The officers were following up on that burglary, and at about 6:30 p.m., they located a suspect and a suspect\u2019s vehicle at the 1800 block of Hardee St.,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/video\/6316068401112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FLORIDA OFFICER RESCUES DROWNING CHILD FROM RETENTION POND<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The suspect was asleep in the back passenger seat, Waters noted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They approached the vehicle, spoke to a resident of the house at that location, and found out who was inside the vehicle,&#8221; he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The sheriff said police were able to track some of the stolen items to the residence.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The five JSO officers returned to the car, formulated a plan, and noticed the handgun on the roof. The firearm was removed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They made a plan to open the door, not go inside, and have a conversation with him [the male suspect],&#8221; Waters explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They asked him to show them his hands on several occasions, like seven or eight times, from different officers,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;They asked him also to get out of the car.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He refused, told the police not to point the flashlight in his face<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/crime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">,<\/a> and &#8220;for an unknown reason&#8221; fired at the officers, Waters said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/pennsylvania-police-chief-killed-shooting-suspect\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>PENNSYLVANIA POLICE CHIEF KILLED IN SHOOTING;
