"All three are being treated for injuries at a nearby hospital and are in stable condition.”
A reporter following the president's motorcade
tweeted she saw "3 officers down on Interstate 10 near Lake Charles as Trump motorcade headed to Hackberry." She wrote she saw "One in grassy ditch, sitting up. One flat on his back on highway shoulder, bleeding. A third standing up, bleeding from his arm."
