Breaking - A state official said two central Georgia police officers were shot and wounded early Monday while serving a search warrant.

Georgia Bureau of Investigation Special Agent J.T. Ricketson told reporters that a multi-jurisdictional drug task force went to a Byron home off state Highway 42. He said the officers knocked on the door three times and announced themselves but there was no answer.

Ricketson said the officers entered the home and an occupant started shooting at them. The officers returned fire. The condition of the suspect wasn’t released.

Ricketson added that officers from Peach and Crawford counties, Byron and Fort Valley take part in the drug task force.

The two officers were taken to Medical Center, Navicent health in Macon. Their conditions weren’t immediately known.
