Five other officers were injured.<\/p>\n<p>Police said Matthew David Stewart, a 37-year-old Army veteran suspected of growing marijuana, ignored a knock at the door when drug task force members arrived to serve a warrant. They said he waited for them to enter his house before firing from a concealed position with a semi-automatic pistol.<\/p>\n<p>When police returned fire, Stewart fled through a rear bedroom window, according to an affidavit. He hid in a backyard shed, where police say he continued firing, nearly hitting another police officer.<\/p>\n<p>It was at that point that Stewart was shot and taken into custody, prosecutors said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We know <a href=\"http:\/\/www.deseretnews.com\/article\/705398357\/Ogden-man-charged-with-shooting-6-officers-killing-1-released-from-hospital.html\">what his defense is going to be<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Stewart, a former member of the U.S. Army for four years, is charged with getting into a gunfight with members of the Weber-Morgan Narcotics Strike Force after the task force showed up at his home to serve a warrant on Jan. 4.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I suppose the Army taught him how to grow pot, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Police engaged in a shoot out with Matthew David Stewart, a 37-year-old Army veteran in Ogden, &hellip; <a title=\"Pot-growing Veteran in shoot out in Utah\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=28572\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Pot-growing Veteran in shoot out in Utah<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[155],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28572","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-shitbags"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28572","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28572"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28572\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28572"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28572"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28572"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
