A burglary in Doney Park ended in an officer-involved shooting Thursday, according to the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office.

The burglary suspect, identified as 32-year-old Peoria man Eric Adamson, was shot at least once after officers say he physically attacked a deputy who was attempting to put him in handcuffs.

CCSO released edited body camera footage of the incident via Facebook.

Just after 3:10 a.m. Thursday, a burglary was reported to CCSO. Deputies responded to Hidden Hill Road, where a caller said someone had broken into their home through a shattered window.

The caller told dispatch they were holding the suspect at gunpoint. By the time deputies arrived, the suspect had jumped back out of the window in an attempt to flee the scene.

Deputies on scene determined the caller was unharmed, and started to search the area for the suspect.
