According to Chief Pamela Smith, police arrived at the residence to serve the warrant around 7:30 a.m. Police attempted to gain entry and the suspect fired gunshots.
Officers were immediately met by gunfire when they arrived at the scene Wednesday afternoon and two Landowne-area officers were wounded. Officers from the Upper Darby Police Department dragged them to safety.
A shot was fired after a 10-person police team breached the first door of the home and started to enter the second door, Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel said.
An officer tased Kapas and got into a brief struggle before Kapas reached for his handgun and fired at police, the chief said. Officers Stephen Ball and Nicholas Franze were shot, one in the arm and the other in the leg.
