Two FBI agents were shot and killed Tuesday morning while executing a search warrant, the bureau announced.
A team of agents and other law enforcement authorities went to a Sunrise, Florida, apartment to serve a federal court-ordered warrant in a "violent crimes against children case," the FBI said in a statement. It's unclear just how the shooting took place, but two of the officers were killed in what the FBI called an "officer-involved shooting," and three more were injured. Two of those injured were taken to a hospital in stable condition.
