A Houston police officer, identified as Officer S.A. Durfee, was shot in the thigh while responding to a home invasion in Spring Branch, but is expected to make a full recovery. The incident occurred around 9:40 a.m. when two young gunmen, disguised as delivery drivers, forced their way into a home. Officer Durfee was injured when one of the suspects fired at him as police arrived, but thanks to a neighbor's quick call to 911, law enforcement responded within minutes. Two suspects in their 20s were apprehended at the scene, while a search is ongoing for a third suspect who may have fled in a white vehicle. Chief of Police J. Noe Diaz praised Officer Durfee as a hero and credited the neighbor's actions for potentially saving lives. Further details regarding the investigation are expected to be revealed in a press conference later today.
