Two police officers shot in Ferguson overnight during protests against the police department could have died from their injuries, and an officer who was shot in the face still has a bullet in his head, St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said Thursday.
"We're lucky by God's grace we didn't lose two police officers last night," Belmar said at a press conference on Thursday. "We could have buried two police officers next week over this."
Belmar said investigators with the department believed the weapon used was a handgun. He said several people who were on the scene were cooperating with police, but he did not want to go into any details about potential suspects in the shooting. He said finding the suspects is the department's top priority.
