CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) — Three South Texas police officers are recovering after being shot while serving a drug warrant.

Corpus Christi Police say Andrew Jordan Sr., Steven Ruebelmann and Steven Brown were shot Thursday morning just as officers were about to enter a suspected drug house.


Three people are now in custody in connection with the shooting.

Jordan was shot in the upper leg and forearm. Ruebelmann was shot in the wrist and hand, and Brown was shot in the right calf. None of the injuries are considered life-threatening.

Corpus Christi is 140 miles southeast of San Antonio.
