SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - The El Cajon police officer who was shot in the head during a deadly domestic dispute has been released from the hospital.

28-year-old Jarred Slocum was shot during a firefight with Kevin Collier last Sunday at the home of collier's mother-in-law on Prince Street.

The bullet struck Slocum's left temple and traveled around his skull, critically injuring him.
