Law enforcement officers led a procession that carried the body of a sheriff's deputy who appears to have been killed by friendly fire to the medical examiner's office in Polk City, Florida, on Tuesday.
Blane Lane, a 21-year-old deputy with the Polk County Sheriff's Office, was killed in an early morning shooting at a mobile home delivering a warrant, Sheriff Grady Judd said. Lane died at the Lakeland Regional Medical Center.
Authorities received a tip that Cheryl Lynn Williams, who had an outstanding felony warrant for failure to appear on a possession of methamphetamine charge, was inside the mobile home at 2 a.m, according to the sheriff's office. Inside the mobile home, Williams allegedly stepped into view with what appeared to be a silver handgun, which she immediately pointed at them. Shots were then fired and Williams went down, according to the deputies. Lane reported that he was shot in the left arm, and the round entered his chest, the sheriff's office said in the release. Williams was transported to a local hospital with multiple gunshot wounds but is in stable condition.
