Two Baltimore City sheriff’s deputies are home recovering from gunshot wounds suffered during a warrant raid-turned-gunfight in Sandtown-Winchester on Monday morning, but a suspected murderer wasn’t so lucky.

Both were released from the hospital and are expected to make full recoveries, said Sgt. Carla Lightsey, a spokeswoman for the city sheriff’s office.
