FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Police in North Dakota say an officer has been shot amid a standoff with a domestic violence suspect in Fargo and is not expected to survive.

Fargo Deputy Police Chief Joe Anderson says 33-year-old Officer Jason Moszer responded to the standoff Wednesday night and parked near a home the suspect was barricaded inside.  

Anderson says the suspect fired multiple rounds from inside the home and struck Moszer. A SWAT team took Moszer to a medical facility, where his family was with him.

Anderson says the six-year veteran of the force is "not expected to survive." The incident began around 7 p.m. after a report that the suspect had fired a gun at his family.
