GRANITE FALLS (WJON News) -- The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension has released more information about the incident on Monday where an officer was shot in Granite Falls.

Willmar Police Officer Jason Hay fired his gun. He was the officer who was struck by gunfire. He was taken to Granite Falls Hospital where he was treated and released.
A Swift County Sheriff's Deputy also fired his gun. He is not being named because he works in an undercover capacity.
