COLDWATER(WTVB) -- A Jackson city Police officer was shot and killed early today while investigating a domestic dispute. Authorities say 26-year-old Officer James Bonneau was shot by 63-year-old Elvin Potts around 12:30 this morning.
Bonneau and Blackman Township Police officer 22-year old Darrin McIntosh were at Potts' home after a woman called police to report she was having trouble with Potts who was her ex-boyfriend. Investigators say Potts opened fire wounding both officers before he was shot and killed by another officer.
Bonneau was pronounced dead at a local hospital while McIntosh underwent surgery and is expected to recover. The investigation into the shooting continues. Bonneau had been with the Jackson Police Department since November of 2007.
