Sacramento, CA- August 8,2009, A Sacramento Deputy stumbles upon bank robbery suspects who evaded Rocklin officers in a pursuit.
As Deputy Duke Lewis approached, one of the three suspects fired multiple rounds, with one striking the deputy in the shoulder from the rear as he attempted to take cover.
The deputy calmly called in that he's been hit and continues to give detailed descriptions to incoming law enforcement units. Units quickly set up a perimeter.
