LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -
Police said a manhunt is underway in a northwest Las Vegas neighborhood for the person who shot an officer Friday morning.
The shooting happened about 4 a.m. at a home on Oveja Circle, near the intersection of Rainbow Boulevard and Alta Drive.
According to a spokesman for Las Vegas Metro police, the officer was shot in the leg while responding to a burglary. The officer returned fire, and wounded at least one person, who was arrested.
The spokesman said officers are in the area looking for at least one more person believed to be involved in the crime. He was described as black, with a short-cut afro. He was last seen wearing basketball. He was not wearing a shirt.
The officer was taken to a local hospital to be treated for his injuries, and was expected to survive, according to the spokesman.
Several roads in the area have been blocked, including Rainbow, West Cliff, Alta and Lorenzi.
