Capac Police Chief Raymond Hawks remained hospitalized this weekend of the Chief's 64th birthday after being shot by a suspect in a reckless driving incident. Chief Hawks call to 911 reporting the incident has recently been released. According to reports from the Detroit News, the incident started when Chief Hawks attempted to stop suspect Donald Robert Burke for reckless driving and an equipment violation. Burke allegedly then failed to stop driving to his home and running inside. Hawks then called for backup from the St. Clair County Sheriff's Office and a wrecker for Burke's car. St. Clair County Sheriff's Deputy Tim O'Boyle arrived at the scene just as Hawks was being shot, Lane said. Burke shot two rounds into O'Boyle's car, Lane said, with bullets going through the windshield and one grazing O'Boyle's head. O'Boyle was not seriously injured. O'Boyle was treated at a local hospital and released and Chief Hawks remains in serious condition.
