An off-duty North Andover police officer was shot by an officer serving a court order Monday night, officials confirmed.
The 'armed confrontation' took place around 6:30 p.m. Monday, Essex County District Attorney Paul F. Tucker and North Andover Police Chief Charles Gray said in a joint statement.
It is not clear what led up to the confrontation, but Tucker and Gray confirmed that a North Andover police officer fired their department-issued gun while 'serving a court order' at the home of an off-duty officer.
The off-duty officer was taken to a Boston-area hospital for treatment of their injuries.
An investigation into the incident is ongoing. Officials did not identify either officer involved.
