WWLTV Three Kenner police officers are hurt after a man shot them Sunday morning during a standoff. The suspected shooter, 31-year-old Matthew Lathers, is dead.
"We attempted to negotiate with him numerous times, and we attempted to make contact, but there was no answer by any means, nor did he ever try to negotiate with our SWAT officers," Jefferson Parish Sheriff Joseph Lopinto said. "And it wasn't until he took the positions that he did that they fired upon him."
The officers are expected to survive. Kenner PD Captain Michael Cunningham said one officer was shot in the arm, the second was shot in the leg, and the third was shot in the stomach.
