The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is on the scene of an officer-involved shooting that occurred on Sunday.

Preliminary information indicates that the Georgia State Patrol requested the state agency following an officer-involved shooting in Bulloch County. The incident arose from a reported abduction in another county.

One man is seriously injured and was flown by Lifestar to Memorial in Savannah. No Troopers were injured in the incident and the abducted individual is safe.

The Bulloch County Sheriff’s Office posted just before 2:00 p.m. on Sunday that I-16 near mile marker 132 and Lanier Road was closed for a period of time. The interstate reopened not long after but a heavy law enforcement presence remained.

No additional information is available at this time.
