Domestic violence suspect shot after allegedly pulling gun on cops

Quincy Morris of Sophia, Greater Georgetown has been shot and injured after he allegedly resisted lawful arrest and pulled a gun on police ranks who were attempting to arrest him.
Based on what the police have reported, the 25-year-old Morris was at the centre of a domestic dispute on Wednesday, and two police ranks on mobile patrol duty were called to assist the ranks at Turkeyen Police Station to respond to a report of domestic violence committed on an 18-year-old female sales representative of ‘E’ Field Sophia.
At about 21:00h, the teenager accompanied the ranks to the home of the suspect Morris, whom she accused of assaulting her, but his sisters informed the ranks that he was not at home. However, as the ranks were leaving, Morris was seen approaching the house with about 20 other males.
He was told of the allegation made against him, and the police attempted to arrest him. Morris, however, resisted arrest, and told the ranks, “I am not going anywhere! This is Sophia!”
He then allegedly pulled a handgun from his pants waist and pointed it at the ranks, and one of the ranks drew his 9mm service pistol and discharged a round in Morris’s direction, causing him to fall to the ground.
The group of men who had come with Morris immediately encircled the two police ranks, and one of them retrieved the firearm which Morris had and fled the scene with it.
Morris was taken by the ranks to the Georgetown Public Hospital, where he is presently under police guard while being administered treatment for a gunshot wound to his upper thigh.
Several persons have since been questioned as police continue their investigation into this incident.
