## Resource

A deputy in Itasca County was shot with his own service weapon during a chaotic arrest attempt of a teen who’d missed court dates. The struggle erupted when the teen resisted arrest, reached for the deputy’s gun, and it fired while still in the holster—hitting the deputy in the thigh. Body cam footage captured the violent exchange, and DNA evidence links the teen, Elias Alexander Harper, to the weapon. Already with a criminal record and reportedly upset over being “ratted out,” Harper now faces serious felony charges including assaulting and attempting to disarm a peace officer. The deputy was airlifted to the hospital but stabilized. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is now investigating. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
