Upon arrival, the deputy exited his vehicle and, as he approached the home, he heard a "banging sound." Investigators said he then noticed a white male firing a gun at him, authorities said. As the deputy fled, the suspect reportedly got into a truck and drove after him. The suspect then exited his vehicle and continued firing shots at the deputy. The deputy returned fire, striking the suspect who, officials say, got inside his truck and drove back to his house. The deputy has been transported to the West Georgia Medical Center with minor injuries, authorities said. #BREAKING: SKYFOX 5 is over the scene in Troup County where a deputy was hit by gunfire after a suspect fired shots at him. #fox5atl pic.twitter.com/3i3Egg0NhA — FOX 5 Atlanta (@FOX5Atlanta) January 9, 2017 The Troup County Sheriff said Hockett had been a deputy for less than a year.
