EL MIRAGE, Ariz. (AP) - FBI officials say two suspects have been injured in a shooting involving federal agents in El Mirage, west of Phoenix and one man is in custody.

They say the incident occurred about 11 p.m. Wednesday night near U.S. Highway 60.

Members of the FBI's Violent Crimes Task Force were involved in a shooting with a suspect while executing a felony arrest warrant.

Three people were in the suspect vehicle at the time of the shooting.

FBI officials say one suspect was injured and treated on scene before being arrested.

They say a second suspect was taken to a hospital and a third person was uninjured and arrested.

The FBI says 32-year-old Ernesto Izaguirre was wanted on the arrest warrant and is in the custody of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.
