According to the LDWF, Senior Agent Tyler Wheeler, 26, pulled over a vehicle on Hwy 165 between Sterling and Bastrop around 2:06 a.m. During the stop, the person inside the vehicle pulled out a gun and shot wheeler multiple times.
Another LDWF agent arrived on the scene minutes later and found Wheeler on the ground, the shooter had fled the scene according to the agency. EMS was called to the scene and stabilized Wheeler before airlifting him to LSU Health Shreveport Trauma Center. Wheeler's condition is currently unknown.
Wheeler has been an LDWF agent for two-and-a-half years and is married with one child, according to the agency.
Louisiana State Police are handling the investigation into his shooting with assistance from the LDWF. No suspect has been named at this time.

off topic ignorant question: why is a LDWF agent engaging in a traffic stop on roads?
Posted on 1/7/17 at 10:17 am to Paul Allen
Awful, just awful. Prayers for the man and his family.

That's awful. With a family too.

So sorry to hear this. Thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family. Great to hear his condition as of now, ( i.e., movement of extremities, response to commands. ) Hope his condition continues to improve.
As far as their duties, I had an Enforcement Agent tell me they ( Enforcement Agents ) have more authority than a state trooper. They are just more cool and laid back. Glad to hear they caught the scumbag POS.
