By Steve Neavling
A deputy U.S. marshal and police dog were shot while a task force was trying to serve an arrest warrant Thursday in Chicago.
Chicago police and members of the U.S. Marshals Great Lakes Regional Fugitive Task Force were trying to arrest a person at about 1:20 p.m. on West Belmont, the Chicago Tribune reports.
The offender fired shots at the task force, causing non-life-threatening injuries to the deputy marshal. A U.S. Marshals Service K-9 dog was also wounded.
A Chicago police officer returned fire but did not strike anyone.
Authorities arrested two people, and the investigation is ongoing.
