INDEPENDENCE, Mo. -- An Independence police officer survived a gunshot to the head and life-saving surgery Wednesday, and now his colleagues and family are asking for thoughts and prayers and privacy.

"Centerpoint Medical Center has treated and admitted the Independence Police Officer who was involved in an incident this morning at 10 a.m. Following life saving surgery, he is in critical condition. Given that there is an ongoing police investigation, the family is asking for privacy at this time," the news release said.

The officer has not been identified; is out of surgery and in critical condition.

The unidentified police officer was shot shortly before 10 a.m. Wednesday at a home in Independence on South Delaware Avenue, and according to a police source, the officer was shot in the head. Dispatch reported the 'officer down'. Two suspects fled from the scene and a chase began. The suspects, according to records, escaped in the SUV that belonged to the person who owns the home. The officer is believed to have exchanged gunfire with the suspects before they escaped in the stolen car.

Police pursued the suspect vehicle, and it was stopped near 23rd and Maywood, about three miles away from where the officer was shot. The suspects were taken into custody near 23rd and Cedar, and at least one suspect was taken away by ambulance.

"Upon their arrival, the suspects fled the scene and in doing so, fired and shot one officer. Officers returned fire. One officer was injured and taken to the hospital," said Capt. Carl Perry, Commander of Community Service Unit. "Your thoughts and prayers to be with the officer and the family would be appreciated."

Neighbors say the homeowner was in his house during the burglary and looked a bit battered and bruised when police escorted him out.

"I saw a gentleman in a red shirt being brought out of the house," said Kathryn Tempel, a neighbor. "Later I thought I saw him standing, talking to police, so I don't think he was the bad guy, I think he might have been the homeowner."

Tempel said when she heard the gunfire, she thought a transformer had blown.

"When I looked out, that's when I saw the police cars, the many police cars," she said.

FOX 4 spoke with another neighbor near South Delaware Avenue who said her daughter came to tell her something was going on. When she looked out her window, she saw several police officers shooting towards the house.

"They had shot through, one of the garage doors was completely shot through, and pulled one of the guys out," witness Tracy Crookham said. "And then it looked like they pulled another guy out through the back, and they were all surrounding the house next door so we assumed that somebody was still inside."

Our crew on the scene says at 2:00 p.m., officers can be seen marking vehicles, huddling together talking, and knocking on doors. Police drones were being used in the investigation. FOX 4's Marcus Officer spoke to the Independence Police Dept. public information officer, who said his hands are tied to release additional information until he's given approval.

Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters-Baker was on the scene. (Scroll down for FOX 4's Shannon O'Brien's video report.)

In a statement Wednesday afternoon, Peters-Baker's office released the following statement:
The Jackson County Prosecutor's Office offers its prayers and thoughts for the veteran Independence Police Officer who was injured in the line of duty this morning. This officer was responding to calls for service in the area of 3600 South Delaware in Independence when he was struck by gunfire. The officer remains hospitalized and his injuries are critical. Additional law enforcement agencies responded to assist. The shooting remains under investigation and is being led by the Kansas City (MO) Police Department at the request of Independence police. Any criminal charges related to this incident are not expected until Thursday. No further statement is expected today regarding the incident.
The public information officer said officers ride in one-man units. When they're called to a scene, additional officers are called to assist.

Several Independence police officers could be seen standing around the emergency room of Centerpoint Medical Center. In addition to Independence police officers, officers from Blue Springs, Kansas City and Jackson County Sheriff's deputies were on the scene.

During a news briefing Wednesday afternoon, Capt. Carl Perry, Commander of Community Service Unit, thanked the community for the concerns and support. See his interview here:

Independence officer in critical condition, shot while responding to home burglary

A Texas church bus crashes into a pickup truck yesterday. 13 were killed, including the two senior drivers that were driving the mini bus.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
At least 13 people were killed and two others injured in a head-on crash Wednesday between a church bus and pickup truck in southwest Texas, officials said.

All of the victims who died were senior adults who attended First Baptist Church of New Braunfels, Texas, including the driver.

A total of 14 senior adults were on the bus and the driver was the only person in the pickup when the vehicles collided about 12:30 p.m. on U.S. 83 outside Garner State Park in northern Uvalde County, according to Texas Department of Public Safety Sgt. Conrad Hein and a church statement.

The area is about 75 miles west of San Antonio.

Hein said two other bus passengers and the pickup driver were injured and hospitalized. One of those passengers died at a San Antonio hospital late Wednesday, DPS Lt. Johnny Hernandez said. The lone surviving passenger was hospitalized in critical condition, while the truck driver was hospitalized in stable condition, he said.

Photographs and video from the scene showed heavy damage to the front drivers' sides of the small white bus and pickup truck, which are the portions of the vehicles where they appear to have collided.

The back of the bus was up on a guardrail and debris was scattered onto the grass below.

An area resident told the Uvalde Leader-News she was behind one of the vehicles involved in the crash, and had contacted law enforcement to report reckless driving. Before help arrived, she had the crash took place.

The First Baptist New Braunfels church asked for those to "please be in prayer for all involved" in a series of statements on its Facebook page.

Pastor Brad McLean addressed members of the media Wednesday night as the congregation gathered at the church for prayer and support, KABB/WOAI-TV reported

"As a church, we're waiting for some official news from authorities before we can speak to anything," McLean said.

The church needs prayer more than anything else during this time, according to McLean, and members of the church gathered to do "what church families do."

"They're coming together, they're crying together, praying together and of course there's anxiousness as to who was on the bus and what their condition is," McLean said.

"You never know what the day is going to bring," he added. "The Lord tells us that we have today, tomorrow is not promised."

The Uvalde County Sheriff's Office said that Highway 83 North is closed South of Garner State Park, and will be closed for several hours.

The Uvalde County Fire Marshals told KABB/WOAI-TV DPS and EMS units, as well as Airlife, were on the scene.

A representative from Airlife said two people were transported to University Hospital.

"We are saddened by the loss of life and our hearts go out to all those affected," Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said in a statement. "We thank the first responders working on the scene in the wake of this unimaginable tragedy, and ask that all Texans join us in offering their thoughts and prayers."

The National Transportation Safety Board said in a tweet Wednesday night, "The NTSB is investigating today's highway accident in Concan, Texas."

Hein said the small bus was a 2004 Turtle Top, though he did not know the specific model. Turtle Top's website features shuttle buses with capacities ranging from 17 to 51 passengers, which they bill as "a great alternative to the standard 15-passenger van."

Safety concerns have long surrounded the 15-passenger vans, also frequently used by churches and other groups, with advocates saying they can be difficult to control in an emergency.

The Golden State Warriors stunned the San Antonio Spurs yesterday after trailing by 22 in the first quarter to end up winning 110-98 on the road to keep the warriors first in the west.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Golden State Warriors stunned the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night at San Antonio's AT&T Center, coming back from 22 points down in the first quarter to win 110-98. This was a game with serious NBA playoff implications, too. The No. 2-seed Spurs now trail the top-seeded Warriors by 3.5 games in the Western Conference standings with seven and six games remaining in the regular season, respectively.

Steph Curry finished with 29 points and 11 assists, while Klay Thompson added 23 points.

This game came just two days after the Spurs destroyed the Cavaliers 103-74 and one day after the Warriors handled the Rockets on the road 113-106.

Warriors forward Kevin Durant didn't play; he has sat the past 16 games with an MCL injury. Golden State has survived, going 12-4 in his absence, so there's no rush to bring him back. The Warriors did say he would be re-evaluated in seven to 10 days , though.

Just over two weeks ago these teams played in San Antonio and a depleted Spurs team beat the even more depleted Warriors 107-85. The Spurs were without Kawhi Leonard, LaMarcus Aldridge, Tony Parker and Danny Green, while the Warriors sat Curry, Thompson, Durant, Draymond Green and Zaza Pachulia. Wednesday night's game felt much more like a playoff game.

Here's what you missed.
Fourth quarter
8:55 remaining: Spurs trail the Warriors 90-85, and you just know this is gonna be close.

6:42: Nine of Klay Thompson's 23 points have come in this quarter. He has the Dubs up 99-90.

2:51: Warriors are out-of-this-world defending Kawhi Leonard. His being held in check has the Dubs up 105-94. Spurs are running out of time.

0:00: Time's up. Incredible comeback.
Third quarter
9:21: Right out of the gate the Warriors go on a run to take their first lead of the game, 62-57.

6:09: 67-62, Warriors, as Steph starts getting hot. He has 20 points on 5-of-12 shooting. He's 3 of 5 from deep.

3:10: 72-71, Warriors still lead, but LaMarcus Aldridge is heading to the line after converting and and-one.

0:00: Warriors are up 84-77 after a STEPH CURRY DUNK.

Second quarter
8:40: 37-27, Spurs still lead. The Warriors' bench is finding better rhythm than its starters, and the inevitable comeback is in order.

6:23: Spurs, 43-29, after a red-hot Danny Green hits his fourth 3-point shot of the half.

2:39: Lead? What lead? Definitely don't scroll down, that lead no longer exists. It's now 48-45, Spurs. Iguodala has been huge with 10 points.

0:00: Spurs lead 57-54. That 20-point lead is no more.
First quarter
9:26: Warriors call timeout after a 10-0 run by the Spurs. The Spurs can't possibly do to the Warriors what the Warriors did to the Cavs. Can they?

7:46: SOS, Warriors, where are ya? 15-0 Spurs.

5:01: Where are the Warriors? Golden State has three points in seven minutes. It's 23-3, Spurs.

3:53: 26-7. Draymond Green and Klay Thompson are scoreless. Steph Curry has five. OK . . .

0:00: 33-17, Spurs. This tweet pretty much says it all.
