Ellis pulled Ramirez over on suspicion of not using his seat belt. Troopers said, Ramirez drove away, prompting a pursuit and that at the end of the chase, gunfire was exchanged.
Ellis suffered a fractured rib which caused internal bleeding when he was shot once to the side of his vest. Ellis was taken to OU Medical Center.
He was in good condition Sunday and has vastly improved, OHP Col. Mike Harrell said.
