Daytona Beach Police Chief Craig Capri said the two officers involved were investigating a seperate shooting on Hollywood Street.

Capri said two men at the location were arguing, which led to the suspect walking into the victim's house and allegedly shoot him.

Then the suspect walked across the street to the house where police believe he lives, according to Capri.

"Thank God, by the grace of God, none of the officers were struck or hit," he said, adding that the officers are OK.

Officers returned fire and the suspect was hit "multiple times" on the 800 block of Wildwood Street and taken to Halifax Health Medical Center.
