CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. — A GoFundMe has been established to support the two Chesterfield Police officers who were shot during a domestic disturbance call last weekend.
Officers Jacob Clark, 25, and Jacob Wells, 40, were critically injured while responding to the call on Gumfork Place on Sunday, May 31. According to the organizer of the GoFundMe, both officers are now recovering and in stable condition.
“Officer Clark sustained seven gunshot wounds and has already undergone multiple surgeries. As part of his lifesaving treatment, he has received more than 71 units of blood. Officer Wells was struck twice, suffering a severe gunshot wound to his right bicep as well as a graze wound to his right wrist,” the GoFundMe reads. “As Officers Clark and Wells focus on their recovery, this fundraiser has been established to support them and their families during the difficult journey ahead.

Your support will allow both officers to focus fully on healing and recovery.”…
