#US Marshals shot, wounded in the Bronx

Three U.S. Marshals were shot during an exchange of gunfire with a suspect wanted out of Massachusetts early Friday in the Bronx, according to police and a report.

The shots were fired inside 4085 Ely Avenue in Wakefield during a Marshals-led operation around 5:30 a.m., the NYPD said.

The gunfire erupted when the deputies approached a man wanted for shooting a Massachusetts state trooper in the hand during a traffic stop last week, NBC New York reported.

The suspect was fatally shot at the scene, and another man was taken to Jacobi for treatment, ABC 7 reported. It was not immediately clear if the wounded man was also a suspect

The FDNY confirmed that EMS transported four people to Jacobi and one was pronounced dead on scene, with no details on each of the patients.   

 The marshals all had non-life-threatening injuries, cops said.    

One of the deputies was hit in the arm and the other two in the leg, NBC reported.
