Police in Georgia have launched a manhunt for a suspect accused of shooting an officer who was responding to a domestic call. 

The incident involving Jordan Jackson happened around 6 p.m. Thursday in McDonough, outside of Atlanta, according to the Henry County Police Department. The 22-year-old is now being sought for aggravated assault on a police officer. 

"All of us all a sudden heard two gunshots. I looked straight-forward and that's when I saw the officer's hand go over his chest. He fell straight back on the driveway, I turned around, told my son to run, we all three ran, hid in a neighbor's garage," one witness told Fox5 Atlanta.
