Two dead and two deputies injured tonight in Ringgold

CATOOSA COUNTY, Ga. (WDEF) – Two dead and two deputies injured at 98 Summit Dr.

Sheriff Gary Sisk told News 12 that they responded to a Domestic call around 5:40p.m.

When they arrived on scene, someone was dead in the road.

Sisk says an older man opened fire on the deputies, hurting two of them.

He said, “I did have two deputies that one got grazed and one got some shrapnel. It was all over a domestic, the suspect apparently did kill himself, had a self inflicted gunshot wound, what appears to be. He’s about a 70, early 70’s year old male.”

He went on to say that some of the suspects family were being held inside the home, but eventually made it out safely.

Sheriff Sisk says the suspect took his own life.
