FARGO (KFGO) – A search is underway for a man who was a passenger in a stolen van in Fargo after police officers responded to a call of people slumped over in the vehicle in an apartment garage in the 3400 block of 15th Ave. S shortly after 8 a.m. Friday.
Police Chief Dave Zibolski says the driver of the van was shot by an officer and is hospitalized in critical but stable condition. Shots were fired as the van came out of the apartment garage. Another man was arrested. The man police are looking for is Native American or Hispanic with a shaved head. Zibolski says he was wearing a light blue T- shirt and light blue jeans when last seen.
The North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation has taken over the investigation. The officer who shot the man is on standard administrative duty. Zibolski says he doesn’t know whether the man who remains at large is armed. Police have not identified him.
The van had been reported stolen in Fargo earlier this week.
