The officer’s gun was seen laying on the ground next to the armored truck after the shooting.

There’s a gun on the ground that *looks* like a revolver? But I can’t get close enough to tell. Likely used in this incident, but waiting to confirm. There is a driver in the Loomis truck. Unclear if he’s the one involved in the incident. @KHOU #khou11 pic.twitter.com/I62pSSEtmu

An abandoned vehicle was found near the intersection of Bolivia Boulevard and Viking Drive, a short distance from the scene of the ambush. Police said the suspects used the SUV during the attack and then ditched the vehicle near the intersection.

Police said the suspects then got into a black Chevrolet Impala and left the area. It’s not clear if a getaway driver was involved.

The suspects got away with a bag of money, but it’s not clear how much money was in the bag.

We send our deepest condolences to his family, friends and fellow officers.

God bless and rest in peace…
