Two Miami-Dade police officers have been injured in a so-called Tactical Operation gone bad in Cutler Bay.
This is currently a developing story that began at SW 281st Street and 143rd Court in Cutler Bay where the two officers were possibly shot, reportedly with an assault rifle.
Other officers may have also been hurt but only with minor injuries.
At least one officer has been transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital.
After the shooting, one suspect barricaded himself inside a building at 280th Street and Southwest 143RD Court.
The other suspect took off in a White Honda Accord and began driving on the Turnpike and led police on a short chase before he bailed out at 222nd Street and SW 110th Avenue.
That suspect, described as a chubby white man with long black hair remains on the loose.
Broward County police agencies have been alerted to the shooting of the Miami-Dade Officers.
This is a developing story so keep checking back here on CBS4.COM for updates
This sounds like an ambush....almost like he wanted a fight. He dropped 4 cops in a split second.
“An aside, why the hell were the initial reports so far off?”
Be on the lookout for a person: one head, two arms, two legs.
Should be considered armed (with something) and dangerous.
Last seen somewhere.

Oh, boy.
Yeah crazy. From chubby white guy with beard and short hair to black male 30.
Remind me never to accept an initial description.
Presser again..
An aside, why the hell were the initial reports so far off?
round up the usual suspects
I don't believe for a second the new scenerio, The "suspect's" car may be stolen. Their ID comes from who owns the car.
Someone post a pic! They have a picture of him....
They are showing a photo of the perp.
Yep.....four officers down I’d say is pretty ridiculous. What the heck kind of animal does that? And who rides around with a bullet proof vest on (if that report is even true)?
I pray to God this is the same guy who killed the officer in Pompano....
initial reports are almost ALWAYS off....get used to it, expect it...
u c chubby wht guy w/ beard, u see BM Wehner, you act....but don’t take to bank capisce?
White honda, black hood...
Thanks for the picture, now I get it.
And the name at the bottom of the picture is Wehner.
If the reporterette says “WERNER” one more time........
Showing him now on FOX
Someone who is hunted.
Will Smith!
What the hell is that on his head?
Thanks.. Glad they put that out...will help people spot him.
I’m wondering what initiated the encounter in the first place...
