FCSO Deputy Christian Lucente attempted a traffic stop for speeding and suspected DUI on Interstate 270 and Route 85.

The suspect, later identified as Lookman-Khalil Abolajo Bello, 28, from Hagerstown, refused to stop, and a vehicle pursuit started.

It ended in the Kingsbrook Community area in Frederick, where Bello bailed out and a foot pursuit began.

At one point, during the foot pursuit, Bello fired at Lucente.

Lucente returned fire, striking Bello.

The Deputy did not sustain any injuries.
