Officer, Suspect Injured In Gunfire At Treasure Coast Bar

A police officer and a wanted suspect are recovering from injuries after gunfire broke out at a biker bar on the Treasure Coast.  

Sebastian police say the officer had approached a man wanted for parole violation last night at Earl's Hideaway on Indian River Drive.  

Around 10:30 Monday night, investigators say officers received a tip that a wanted suspect was at the bar. 

When officers approached, they say the suspect pulled a gun and gunfire was exchanged. The suspect and officer were shot and were taken to the hospital. 

Injuries for both are considered non-life-threatening and their names were not immediately released.  

The incident is under investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the Indian River County Sheriff's Office.
