I spoke with the Orange County Sheriff this evening and was told the deputy was going to pull through OK. The wounds although serious were not as bad as they first appeared.

Orange County Texas deputy shot
A deputy transporting a juvenile prisoner was shot by the juvenile with the deputy's gun. The juvenile was being transported to the regional juvenile detention center in Beaumont, Texas after a court appearance in Orange, Texas. As the deputy was removing the juvenile from the car the juvenile began to struggle with the deputy; he then grabbed the deputy's weapon shooting the deputy at least one time in the chest. The deputy is at a local hospital in serious condition. The juvenile is in custody.
I'll update as soon as I know more.
Praying for the deputy.
