A Vermont State Police Trooper from the St. Johnsbury barracks was involved in a shooting incident Tuesday night in Danville. The injured suspect, who has not been named, is in stable condition and is being treated at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center.

The Vermont Attorney General's office says a state police trooper was justified when he shot and wounded a Proctor man during what was described as a violent gun battle last November.
