Three Georgia officers were shot on Monday after a man opened fire on them with an AK-47 assault rifle. 

The footage picks up after Pier Shelton, 28, was engaged in a high-speed chase with officers in Carroll County near the Alabama border. As the squad vehicle approached Shelton, he fired several rounds before the cops eventually shot and killed him. 

“If not for the heroic efforts of all Officers and agencies involved and to Corporal Troutt and Deputy Repetto for stopping the suspect, this incident could have resulted in more Officers being injured or killed and the suspects could have posed an even bigger threat to the public as this occurred in a residential area, and at this time of the morning, people are getting ready for work and staff is getting ready to arrive at the school,” the Carroll County Sheriff's office said in a statement.
