Lansing PD: Man wounded after shooting at officers

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Police in Lansing say a man was badly wounded  after shooting at tactical officers who tracked him down after he  earlier fired at another officer.

The department says the  25-year-old man was in critical but stable condition after Saturday's  shooting. No officers were wounded.

Police say officers began  searching for the man after shots were fired at an apartment complex  where no one was injured. An officer who spotted him about an hour later  reported that the man shot at her and she returned fire.

Officials  say the man fled and was spotted by a helicopter at an abandoned  lumberyard. Officers approached him with an armored truck, but police  say that's when he opened fire and the officers wounded him multiple  times.

The man's name wasn't immediately released.
