A search is under way for a man who Friday morning shot at an El Dorado County sheriff’s deputy.

At about 8am Oct. 17, the deputy contacted a man near Cable Road in Camino. A struggle began with the 6 feet 2 inch 225 pound man.

The man then retrieved a handgun and fired at the deputy, missing him, according to a sheriff’s office press release.
