Two Mississippi police officers were killed Saturday morning in Brookhaven. Officials say James White, 35, and Zach Moak, 31, were killed after answering a call of gunshots fired.
They were killed in an exchange of gunfire that also left the suspect wounded.
Gov. Phil Bryant later tweeted: “Let us all pray just now for the family and loved ones of these fallen heroes. May the Good Lord hold them in his everlasting arms.”
