Two St. Louis Police officers are in the hospital after being shot Wednesday night while answering a home alarm call in Baden. The officers had been called to a boarded up home in the 900 block of Elias Avenue about 11 p.m.

The officers returned fire, striking the suspect several times. He's in critical condition at St. Louis University Hospital.
