COMPTON, Calif. (KABC) -- The two Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department deputies who were
shot in the head in an ambush in Compton Saturday are now in stable condition, authorities confirmed Sunday.
A senior official within in the department tells ABC News that one of the deputies, only identified as a 31-year-old mother of a 6-year-old boy, was shot in the jaw and arms but is critical but stable condition.
The other deputy, a 24-year-old man, was struck by gunfire in the forehead, an arm and a hand. He is described as alert. Neither of their names have been released to the public.
Meanwhile, the search continued Sunday for the gunman who shot at the deputies Saturday as they sat in a patrol vehicle outside the Metro Blue station at Willowbrook Avenue and Compton Boulevard.
The department later announced a $100,000 reward for any information leading to the gunman's arrest. He was described as Black man between 28-30 years old. Authorities say he was wearing dark clothing and was last seen going northbound on Willowbrook Avenue in a black four-door sedan.
