Very thankful the officer is still alive and there are citizens helping. Hope he recovers fully.

According to the news the officer and the suspect are in stable condition. The hospital in Lubbock did go into lockdown to keep visitors out due to the large number of people from Seagraves going to visit.

Both the officer and suspect were transported by ground because the air ambulance service was grounded due to weather conditions in the area.
