NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — Two Connecticut police officers were shot and wounded Wednesday morning while trying to execute a search warrant in New Haven, where a person described by authorities as a suspect was also injured.

The two West Haven officers were expected to survive their injuries, New Haven police said. Authorities said a suspect was also struck by gunfire, but their condition was not disclosed.
