the deputy sheriff was transported as well. he was shot in the hand, but at this time, we don't know the extent of those injuries. we're told two are being detained at this time though they have yet to be identified. still waiting on that information. several agencies are working on the investigation. the nevada division of investigation, the washoe county crime lab. we're told the lyon office reached out to see if they can help with the coroner's report. but again, we are still waiting on quite a quite a bit of information >> we have all the subjects accounted for one of the subjects did admit there were just the four in the vehicle. >> reporter: as soon as we find out information, like the identity of the suspect, if there were more suspects involved, and of course what exactly led to this officer-involved shooting, we will bring you that information right here on news 4. so please stay with us for the very latest developments in this investigation.
