The man agreed to leave with the officers to receive help at University Hospital Richmond Medical Center. He went to a room upstairs with the officers to get some clothes when he grabbed a handgun and shot the sergeant in the right side of his chest. The wounded officer was not wearing a bullet-proof vest, Chief Rowe said. The other officer returned fire and killed the suspect, Rowe said.
