CHARLOTTE \u2014 A Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer was shot while responding to a call in west Charlotte early Wednesday morning, and the suspect is still on the run.<\/p>\n

Channel 9 heard reports of a shooting on Enderly Road between Freedom Drive and Tuckaseegee Road just after 12:30 a.m. Wednesday. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Police say it started as a suspicious vehicle call, involving two suspects. Investigators later uncovered that vehicle had recently been stolen.<\/p>\n

When an unnamed officer arrived on scene, police say the suspect fired their weapon, striking the officer, and fled. The officer did not return fire.<\/p>\n

The injured officer was rushed to Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center in Dilworth and is currently in stable condition.<\/p>\n

CMPD is the lead investigating agency in this case. The department says its Internal Affairs Bureau will conduct a separate investigation, which is normal for any officer-involved shooting.<\/p>\n

Police have not released any other details about the suspects. <\/p>\n

Channel 9 has multiple reporters gathering information.<\/p>\n
