The incident unfolded shortly after midnight, when deputies responded to a report of a person brandishing a rifle in unincorporated west Santa Rosa, according to the Sonoma County Sheriff's Office.
The person fled in a vehicle when confronted by law enforcement officials, stopping at times to allegedly fire shots at deputies, said the office.

Four deputies were injured, including one with a head injury in critical condition, it noted.
