The El Cajon police officer shot Sunday afternoon while answering a domestic disturbance call is conscious and in stable condition at a local hospital, officials said.
Police have surrounded the home where the alleged gunman is believed to be barricaded. The home was set on fire, but firefighters have doused the flames.
Police are investigating initial indications that the gunman shot two other people, possibly family members, before the police officer came to the home about 5:30 p.m.
Dozens of officers from San Diego County agencies responded to the "officer down" call.
The officer's name is being withheld.
