Officers caught up to him and tried to conduct a traffic stop, police say, but the suspect fled and a pursuit ensued.
Police say Limon drove back to the scene of the disturbance, got out of his vehicle armed with a shotgun and fired several rounds at the officers.
The officers returned fire & hit Limon.
Limon survived his injuries and was taken into custody as well as charged for his role in the incident after he was released from the hospital.
