— -- A San Diego television sports anchor was shot Tuesday in his car outside his home in what appeared to be an ambush, police said.

Kyle Kraska, the sports anchor at KFMB-TV, was shot as he was backing his Mercedes out of his driveway in the Scripps Ranch neighborhood shortly after 3 p.m., San Diego Police Department spokesman Officer Mike Tortorella said.

Photos from the scene show a Mercedes half out of the driveway, with the rear window glass broken.

Mike Montana, 54, a suspect in the shooting, surrendered to police hours later following a SWAT standoff. Montana was seen leaving the scene in a white minivan with "Superior Painting" on the side, police said.

San Diego police Lt. Scott Wahl told ABC affiliate KGTV in San Diego that he could provide no details on what relationship there might be between Montana and Kraska.

Kraska underwent surgery and is expected to survive.

Kraska has been with KFMB-TV since 1999 and has been the sports anchor for 12 years.
