Published: October 8, 2008
Broward County sheriff's deputies shot and wounded two men during an undercover operation in Tamarac.
A sheriff's spokesman says the men came to a building expecting to finalize plans to break into a home. The two deputies fired when the men resisted them. Authorities say all three of the suspects were armed but did not fire.
Both injured men were taken to Broward General Medical Center. One underwent surgery and the other had non-life-threatening injuries. The third man involved was arrested.
The two members of the sheriff's SWAT team who fired will be placed on administrative leave, a standard procedure after deputy-involved shootings.
