GRETNA, Virginia—Three sheriff’s deputies injured in gunfire while executing warrants in southern Virginia on Wednesday were “shaken up” but doing well, officials said.

The warrants were for brandishing a firearm and trespassing, said Pittsylvania County Sheriff Michael W. Taylor. They were also serving a protective order, he said.
