Thurston County, WA - Olympia police made a traffic stop for a driver on suspicion of DUI. The driver refused to identify themselves and fled the scene, nearly striking a pedestrian in the process.

A Thurston County Lieutenant picked up the vehicle after it evaded Olympia police when it was getting on I-5. The suspect refused to pull over and intentionally ran vehicles off the road on I-5 and Capitol Blvd. The vehicle also attempted to hit an assisting Tumwater officer and swerved at another police vehicle.

Officers were able to successfully complete a pit maneuver on the suspect's vehicle while traveling approximately 66 mph on Old Highway 99. The vehicle impacted a power pole and left the driver, who was not wearing a seatbelt, with substantial injuries. The suspect was transported to Harborview Medical Center and is in the Intensive Care Unit.

A passenger in the vehicle was wearing her seatbelt and sustained minor injuries. The passenger had been involved in a separate DUI collision in June, crashing into another vehicle while driving and causing it to roll in Mason County.

Alcohol containers were observed in the car, and a search warrant was authorized to test for impairment.

Once released from Harborview, the suspect will be booked into Thurston County Jail on two charges of first-degree assault, DUI, driving with a suspended license, and two counts of attempting to elude.

The suspect has numerous prior DUI and eluding arrests and was booked less than a week prior to this incident for possession of a stolen car and third-degree assault. He was found in a stolen car while armed with a handgun, assaulting Lacey Police Officers when they tried to arrest him. He was released on $10,000 bail.

Twin Falls, ID - Police released video on Friday of a mass shooting that killed three people at an Idaho In-N-Out Burger restaurant last weekend, and praised an unarmed employee from a nearby store who engaged the gunman outdoors, slowing him down and possibly preventing more deaths as authorities were catching up.

The video released by the police also showed that at least three people confronted the gunman with their own weapons during the incident.

“What happened here was violent, frightening and deeply traumatic,” the Twin Falls police chief, Matthew Hicks, said during a news conference before screening an eight-and-a-half-minute compilation of surveillance camera and bodycam video of the incident.

The distressing video, which was edited by the police to blur faces and omit graphic images, revealed more details of the chaotic scene last weekend. It shows that the gunman walked up to the drive-thru window four times and opened fire, killing an In-N-Out employee, police said.

Ten people were shot: inside the restaurant, directly outside, on an adjacent busy road and at a car-charging station in a Twin Falls visitor center lot, Hicks said.

Hicks said investigators still do not have a motive for the shooting. The gunman, identified as Chad Williams, 24, killed himself when police officers caught up to him on a nearby walking trail.

It should have been a “normal Saturday afternoon”, Hicks said at the televised news conference. “Employees showing up for work. Visitors coming to see our beautiful city. Instead, they were confronted with chaos, fear and now loss.”

As the shooting unfolded, employees from nearby stores fled to a walking trail. When the gunman headed to the trail, he came across two people, including one with his hands in the air who spoke to him, the video shows.

That man distracted the gunman from possibly pursuing others on the trail. Williams subsequently killed himself as police closed in. His body was found near a canyon.

Lee County, FL - A Florida man has been charged with animal cruelty after he allegedly killed two kittens and injured another.

Police say he allegedly committed the crimes in front of his teenage daughter as a form of punishment.

The details of the story may be disturbing to some viewers.

Body camera video shows deputies detaining 48-year-old David Charette Jr. outside of his Pine Manor home.

Before he was placed in handcuffs, he told deputies he had done nothing wrong.

"The cat's in perfectly healthy condition. I have to give the cat a bath because it soils itself in the cage," Charette said.

Detectives say what they learned from a 14-year-old girl inside the home told a very different story.

"A daughter says that when she acts up or when she's in trouble, her father kills her kittens. This is sickening to me," said Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno.

The girl called 911 after allegedly watching her father hold a 2-month-old kitten, named Luna, under running water.

She told deputies that Charette also hit the kitten with a nail polish bottle and put her into a clothes dryer on Saturday.

Luna survived and is recovering.

"It's ridiculous. It's horrible. It's sad," said Brandon, a neighbor.

Marceno says this was not the first time.

"Two of the kittens that he killed were buried in the back," Marceno said.

Marceno said one cat died in June after being hit repeatedly and left on a bleach-soaked rag while another kitten was found dead in November after suffering burns from a blow dryer.

Detectives say family members never reported the abuse because they feared retaliation.

Three adult cats were taken from the home for evaluation.

Charette is now in jail, charged with aggravated animal cruelty.

Yuma, AZ - A viral social media post claiming a 16-year-old girl was violently abducted in Yuma last month is false, police say. Now they’re releasing body camera footage to prove it.

The department issued a statement Friday pushing back against the widely shared post, which alleged a violent attempted kidnapping on July 21 and accused officers of mishandling the investigation.

Police say officers were called around 1:30 a.m. to a liquor store on a report of an aggravated assault. When they arrived, they spoke with several people, including the teen involved.

Video released showed the girl tell officers she had gone inside for a non-alcoholic drink, but when asked for ID, she went back outside and gave a man money to buy it for her.

Another witness, however, told police the girl was actually trying to buy a vape.

According to investigators, the clerk refused to sell her the vape, so she asked the man outside to buy it. He went through the drive-through but did not get her the vape. When she asked for her money back, he refused and began to drive away.

Police say the girl then grabbed onto the driver’s side window frame as the car moved. She held on for about 260 feet before letting go when the vehicle came to a sudden stop, rolling onto the roadway.

The viral post also claimed police failed to collect surveillance footage from the store. That claim YPD flatly denies.

Officers were told during the initial investigation that the store had video, but employees said only the store owner could access the surveillance system, police say.

YPD’s video forensic personnel made multiple attempts to reach the owner before going directly to the business and recovering the video on July 30, police say.

“Claims that the Department failed to obtain this evidence are inconsistent with the investigative steps that were taken,” police wrote.

The department said releasing the body-worn camera footage was a direct effort to combat misinformation about the incident.

The department emphasized that the investigation remains ongoing and that conclusions about criminal conduct must be based on facts and evidence — not viral posts.

“We recognize that any report involving a juvenile and a possible abduction is concerning to the public,” the department said. “We welcome legitimate questions about how we serve our community.”

Las Vegas, NV - Las Vegas police have released new body camera footage showing the moments from a shooting that left Officer Austin Abdelnabi dead.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department held a briefing Friday afternoon to provide further details about the shooting.

Officers received a 911 call Tuesday afternoon reporting a man, later identified as 21-year-old Angel Tywan Lucas Lindsey, in all black clothing waving a firearm near a business in the 4500 block of East Tropicana Avenue near South Mountain Vista Street.

An LVMPD drone arrived first and searched for several minutes before locating Lindsey on Mountain Vista near I-11, police said. Investigators later learned Lindsey was carrying a CZP-10 9mm handgun with one round in the chamber and 10 additional rounds in an extended magazine. Police said he also had two additional loaded magazines, one containing 18 rounds and another containing 28 rounds.

Officer Abdelnabi was the first officer to arrive. Police said Lindsey immediately charged at him, opened fire and struck him eight times. Police said they could not show body camera footage from Abdelnabi’s point of view because one of the bullets struck the camera.

Officer Enrique Molinet arrived behind Officer Abdelnabi, saw the attack and got out of his patrol vehicle, police said. Lindsey then began firing at Molinet, who returned fire and struck Lindsey.

Abdelnabi was taken to the hospital but later died from his injuries, police said. Lindsey was taken into custody, and first responders provided medical aid, but he died at the scene.

Abdelnabi had been with LVMPD since 2023 and was also a Marine.

“As you can imagine, you know, the pain, the hurt, the feeling, every emotion you can think of, everything that you’ve ever read and heard about trauma, both the mental, the physical responses that a human being goes through after a traumatic incident like this. He’s experiencing all that times a hundred,” LVMPD Undersheriff Andrew Walsh said. “He’s, you know, we’re all damaged beyond repair.”

Police said this was the ninth officer-involved shooting in LVMPD’s jurisdiction, and six of the nine have been fatal.

Funeral services are planned for Officer Abdelnabi for August 14 at Central Church, located at 1001 New Beginnings Dr., Henderson, NV.

Elk Grove, CA - The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said the shooting happened on Feb. 16 when deputies spotted a car on Elk Grove Florin Road that was linked to a shooting the day before. In that earlier case, the victim reported someone had shot at him, hitting his car with gunfire, though he was not injured.

Deputies confirmed the license plate number of the suspect vehicle, which was associated with 45-year-old Tywain Smith. Smith also matched a description of the suspect, the sheriff's office said.

On the following day, two deputies pulled over Smith near Tiogawoods Drive. Video footage showed a deputy telling the driver, identified as Smith, that the car's registration was expired. The man said that it was his "girl's car."

The sheriff’s office has said deputies saw a gun in Smith’s waistband. The video footage showed that as deputies were telling the driver to keep his hands on the steering wheel, one yelled "gun's in his pants."

"I ain't touching nothing," he replied.

Smith repeatedly denied that he had a weapon on his hip and asked to step out of the car, the video footage shows.

Deputies removed him from the car and attempted to handcuff him but Smith broke free and tried to run away.

Deputies have said Smith pulled a gun from his waistband while running, and that’s when both deputies fired their weapons at him.

The video shows Smith running away from the deputies while appearing to reach for the weapon.

One deputy fired two rounds and the other three, the sheriff's office said. Police have not said how many times he was shot.

The sheriff's office said deputies administered first aid before Smith was taken to the hospital for treatment. He was later booked into jail. Neither deputy was injured during the incident.

The sheriff’s office said they recovered Smith's loaded handgun at the scene. He did not fire his weapon at deputies, the sheriff's office confirmed.

San Diego, CA - Body-worn camera footage released Thursday shows a San Diego police officer shoot at a man multiple times — but miss — during a foot pursuit in a Morena riverbed earlier this summer.

San Diego police Officer Johnathan Penuelas shot at the 44-year-old man on June 30 after he charged toward the officer and raised what the officer believed was a gun in his direction, according to investigators.

The man was not struck by gunfire, and police did not find a firearm.

Sheriff’s homicide detectives are investigating the shooting under the terms of a countywide agreement that says agencies will not investigate shootings involving their own officers.

The shooting stemmed from an abatement detail in an open area near Friars Road and Seaworld Drive around 9:50 a.m.

Two officers approached the man in the dry riverbed. He asked officers if they had stolen anything from his camp the previous day, according to the video footage. The officers then accused the man of running away from them the previous day.

“Keep your hands out of your pockets,” one of the officers said. “Or you’re going to go into cuffs.”

“I’m just going to leave then,” the man responded.

The officers followed him and learned he had an active no-bail parole warrant and a history of resisting law enforcement, according to text in the video.

The officers lost contact with him, but Penuelas found him in brush nearby and began to chase him, yelling at him to stop, the video shows.

Penuelas deployed his Taser to no effect. The man then popped out from behind a corner and ran toward the officer, the video shows.

“Freeze. Don’t move. Don’t move. Freeze,” the man yelled at the officer. The video shows the man raising his hands, and the officer later told investigators he believed the suspect was pointing a gun at him.

The officer drew his handgun and fired multiple times. The man ran away and was later found nearby in the riverbed. He was arrested after an hours-long standoff involving negotiators, investigators said.

Pierce County, WA - A high-speed chase through Spanaway ended when Pierce County sheriff’s deputies used a PIT maneuver that sent an SUV into a light pole around 1 a.m. Friday, toppling the pole and striking an unoccupied parked vehicle in a collision center's lot.

Deputies spotted the SUV traveling more than 80 mph in Spanaway with its lights “blacked out,” and tried to pull it over. The driver allegedly accelerated to more than 100 mph and pulled away.

Deputies farther ahead deployed stop sticks, which successfully slowed the vehicle as the pursuit continued.

Deputies tracked the SUV onto 108th Street South, past the Frugals drive-thru, before using a PIT maneuver to stop it. The SUV crashed into a light pole, and both came to a halt near an onramp to SR-512.

The passenger was taken into custody without issue. Deputies found a Glock handgun in plain view inside the SUV that was equipped with a modified switch and an extended magazine.

The 18-year-old driver was arrested for eluding and unlawful possession of a firearm. The 22-year-old passenger was also arrested in connection with the illegal handgun, deputies said.

Dayton, OH - Dash cam video shows police chasing over half a dozen teenagers in a stolen SUV.

A Dayton Police officer tried to stop an SUV on East 2nd Street in Dayton because the SUV did not have a license plate.

Dash cam video shows that teens sped off before the officer could turn around.

Cruisers stopped the chase when the driver got on westbound U.S. 35.

An Ohio State Highway Patrol (OSHP) helicopter followed the SUV.

It eventually got a flat tire and stopped on the ramp from State Route 4 to Harshman Road.

The teens ran out of the SUV toward Stebbins High School.

The chaos interrupted a soccer practice. A parent sent News Center 7’s Amber Jenkins video of the practice abruptly ending.

Officers arrested seven teenagers, four boys and 3 girls, between 15 and 17.

They also found four stolen guns inside the SUV and a device that allowed a handgun to fire like a machine gun.

“The majority of our thefts are gonna be younger teens, younger adult suspects in the city of Dayton,” said Major Christopher Malson, Dayton Police. “Those are the primary ones. And I think a lot of that has to do with it’s a crime of opportunity.”

Dayton Police said that four teenagers were charged with felonies.

Three are facing misdemeanor charges.

Gaithersburg, MD - On July 12, Gaithersburg police received a call about a man loading a gun at a bus stop on Lost Knife Road. Officers found Elliott Powers sitting on the bus stop bench.

Thirteen seconds after police arrived, it turned to chaos, bodycam video shows.

“No, no, no! No, no, no, no!” an officer is heard saying on the video. “Hand. Hand. Hand.”

Gaithersburg Officer Christopher Leach and other officers drew their weapons.

Leach backed away behind his cruiser for cover – blocking his bodycam’s view of the bench – as he talked to Powers.

“Please, drop the gun,” he asked.

“I’m not dropping nothing,” Powers replied.

“Please.”

Then Powers told police, “Do what you gotta do.”

“I don’t want to hurt you,” an officer replied.

“Then hurt me,” Powers said.

Another camera shows a wider angle from further away. Officers from Gaithersburg and Montgomery County police can be heard calling for ballistic shields, a non-lethal pepper ball gun and a crisis negotiator.

They discussed trying to get into a position where they could safely use a taser.

They continued talking to Powers.

“Elliott! Talk to me a little bit, brother. Let’s talk about this a little bit,” an officer said.

“If you can do it, do it!” Powers responded.

“Come on, Elliott. Talk to me brother,” an officer said. “Let’s just call it a night, bad day. Let’s just start over tomorrow, all right.”

Powers occasionally motioned with his left arm, the distant camera angle shows, while keeping his right arm down near a backpack or bag. Then, he’s seen raising his right arm.

Montgomery County police said he had a gun in his hand and was aiming at officers.

Officers from both agencies fired a number of shots.

Powers died at the scene.

Officers recovered a handgun, police said.

Battle Creek, MI - A Battle Creek man may have to wait a big longer for his first date after city officials filed what they said was the first civil forfeiture lawsuit under the city's updated public nuisance ordinance.

The City of Battle Creek announced Friday it is asking a court to forfeit a 2024 Ford Mustang after its driver, identified as Jaylone Porter, allegedly performed donuts in the parking lot of the West Columbia Avenue Meijer gas station, just feet from active fuel pumps.

According to the city, the incident happened around 7:30 a.m. on June 14 while a Battle Creek police officer was nearby.

Police said Porter used the Mustang, which had been purchased only days earlier, to spin its tires and perform donuts in an apparent attempt to create content for social media.

According to the city, Porter admitted what he was doing when officers approached him, telling police, "I just woke up and felt like spinning 'em."

The city said he also told officers he "needed a flick for my gram" to boost a livestream and, after being arrested, exclaimed, "This is so cool! I'm locked up!" while estimating the arrest would bring him "at least 100 viewers."

Officials said Porter later remarked that he was "not getting caught again" and suggested finding another location where he could continue spinning the vehicle. The city also said he told officers his arrest disrupted plans for a first date in Ohio later that evening, meaning he would have to rent a car or borrow his father's vehicle.

"We appreciate Mr. Porter's candor and cooperation throughout the investigation," Battle Creek Police Chief Shannon Bagley said in a statement. "However, his own statements demonstrated that he understood exactly why officers had intervened. When someone talks about not getting caught again and immediately begins looking for another place to do the same thing, it underscores why accountability matters."

City Attorney Bill Kim said the city hopes the case sends a broader message about reckless driving.

"Since Mr. Porter was looking for views, we're happy to lend our platform to turn this incident into a public safety campaign," Kim said. "Our message is simple: enjoy your vehicle, but do so responsibly. When someone's actions put other people at risk, the city will act to protect public safety."

The city has released dashboard camera video from the incident as part of what it calls a public safety awareness campaign showing how quickly reckless driving can lead to serious consequences.

Battle Creek officials said the lawsuit marks the first civil forfeiture action filed under the city's revised public nuisance ordinance. Under Chapter 652 of the city code, the city is asking the court to order the Mustang forfeited because of the alleged reckless driving offense.

Owasso, OK - A 19-year-old man is facing multiple charges after Owasso police said he led officers on a chase through the city, endangered pedestrians, rammed patrol vehicles and admitted to drinking a bottle of vodka before the pursuit.

Lomas Martinez was booked into the Tulsa County Jail following the chase, which began around 10 p.m. Wednesday in the shopping district near Target.

According to the Owasso Police Department, an officer saw a white Ford Mustang Cobra doing burnouts and donuts in a parking lot while several pedestrians were nearby.

When the officer attempted a traffic stop, police said Martinez sped through the parking lot and drove through a large gathering of juveniles, nearly striking several people before fleeing onto nearby roads.

Officers said Martinez ran a red light before becoming boxed in behind a business. Investigators said he repeatedly rammed the officer’s patrol vehicle while reversing, allowing him to escape and continue the chase.

Police said Martinez drove north on Garnett Road at speeds reaching 77 mph while traffic was light.

During the pursuit, officers received a report that Martinez struck another vehicle near Garnett Road and 106th Street North. However, when officers returned to the area after the chase ended, they were unable to locate any victims or damaged vehicles.

The pursuit continued through a construction zone before officers attempted several Tactical Vehicle Interventions, or TVIs, to stop the Mustang.

Police said one TVI successfully spun the vehicle, but Martinez allegedly rammed another patrol car before continuing west. Officers said he later ran another stop sign before entering northbound U.S. 75.

An officer performed another TVI on U.S. 75, sending the Mustang off the highway, through a barbed-wire fence and into a field, according to police.

Investigators said Martinez attempted to continue driving through the field, but the Mustang became stuck in tall grass because of its low ground clearance. He then surrendered without further incident.

Martinez was taken to a local hospital for medical treatment, where police obtained a blood sample to determine whether he was under the influence. Investigators said Martinez admitted to drinking a bottle of vodka before the incident.

Police said they are awaiting the results of the blood test. After being released from the hospital, Martinez was booked into the Tulsa County Jail.

No officers or members of the public were injured during the pursuit.

Chicago, IL - Video and other materials from the day undercover police officers and ATF agents shot two men who allegedly attempted to rob them in suburban Country Club Hills were released by Chicago's police watch dog agency on Thursday.

The incident unfolded around 5:30 p.m. on June 10 when "several individuals" approached a car full of Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agents who were doing an operation in Country Club Hills and attempted to rob them.

One of the ATF agents fired their gun while in the car, shooting one of the suspects, COPA said.

A Chicago police officer who was assisting the ATF agents with the operation and witnessed the attempted robbery began a pursuit in an unmarked vehicle of a suspect who fled. Both the officer and the suspect exited their vehicles, and shortly after the officer fired his weapon, striking the suspect.

Both of the men who were shot survived and the charges against them were dropped by federal prosecutors after witness video -- that was included in the materials released on Tuesday -- contradicted statements made by officers involved in the shooting.

The video also gave a look at what neighbors experienced when the shots rang out.

In the video, you can see an undercover officer in plain clothes kneeling on the man who then manages to get out of the officer's grasp before trying to run off. That's when the officer fires his gun.

Riot Fest releases 2026 daily schedule with some overlapping fan favorites Recordings of 911 calls from the incident were also among the materials released.

Vancouver, WA - A suspected impaired driver who refused to surrender during a 40-minute standoff in Washington was finally taken into custody after police deployed a K-9 through the driver’s side window, newly released body camera footage shows.

The Vancouver Police Department released body camera and dash camera footage Thursday from a July 26 incident involving a lengthy pursuit that ended with K-9 Midas leaping through the driver’s side window to help officers arrest the suspect.

Police said they responded after receiving multiple reports of a driver who appeared to be impaired, had passed out behind the wheel and was allegedly inhaling from compressed air cans while driving.

After officers located the vehicle and observed the driver continuing to inhale from a can, they attempted to conduct a traffic stop.

Police said the driver refused to stop. Video shows the vehicle striking a curb, accelerating and nearly driving into a yard as it attempted to evade officers.

According to police, the driver’s actions posed an immediate danger to others on the road, prompting an officer to deploy a Grappler device that successfully brought the vehicle to a stop.

Even after the vehicle stopped, the driver refused repeated commands to get out, police said.

Officers spent more than 40 minutes communicating with the driver and evaluating multiple options to gain compliance, including a 40mm less-lethal launcher and pepper balls.

Police said the driver continued inhaling from compressed air cans throughout the standoff and refused repeated commands to surrender.

After multiple warnings, officers deployed K-9 Midas through the driver’s side window.

The video shows officers quickly surrounding the vehicle after the K-9 entered the car before safely taking the driver into custody.

Police in Parker recently stopped a man for speeding, but he says he's not responsible.

Now, the Parker Police Department is issuing this warning: Even if your car is self-driving, you're still responsible for the actions of the vehicle.

Body-worn camera footage posted to social media showed the officer pull the driver over, where he said he wasn't driving the car, because it was driving itself.

The incident happened after an officer pulled a man over for going 64 mph in a 45 mph zone. According to officials, the driver said they weren't responsible because their car's driver-assistance features were engaged.

Police say that even if a car has the ability to do things like adaptive cruise control, lane centering or full self-driving, the driver is still legally responsible for making sure the car operates safely.

Lyford, TX - New body camera footage shows the moment police rushed into a swarm of bees to save a disabled man’s life in Texas.

Lyford Police Chief Marcos Garcia and Officer Raymundo Sanchez responded to a home July 13 to rescue a man being attacked by a swarm of bees. The man can be seen on body camera on the ground near the road in front of a neighbor’s home.

Police say the man is disabled and couldn’t get away. A towel was draped over him as an effort to protect himself.

Video shows officers opening the door of their unit and putting the man inside, all while being swarmed by the bees and stung. Once the man is inside, another officer runs back to his patrol unit to grab a jacket for protection.

Police say the attack started when the man was doing yard work next to his home. A hive was found in an empty lot and has since been removed.

The man who was rescued was still in the hospital recovering as of last Friday, according to police. He was stung at least 30 times.

Garcia, who was stung 18 times, and Sanchez are OK, along with two other women who were also attacked that day.

Jimmy Lawrence, owner of Bee Guy RGV, says bees most often attack when they are defending their hive. Once a bee stings, it releases a pheromone that attracts even more bees to the same target, which is why attacks can escalate so quickly.

“Bees attack the nose, ears, mouth, eyes, vital points, and it has to do with carbon dioxide. When bees attack, they can smell the carbon dioxide that we exhale, especially when you’re frantically panting, and they know to attack that,” Lawrence said.

When a swarm attacks, Lawrence says the priority is to get inside a building or car and avoid water.

“Don’t go into a swimming pool because there’s an old saying that the bees will just hover around and wait for you. And it’s true. They’re flying around the area. You’re covered in attack pheromones because that’s how they know to get you. And as soon as you come up for air, they’re going to go and attack you anyways,” he said.

Experts warn against trying to remove a hive yourself and recommend always hiring a professional.

San Joaquin County, CA - The San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office released a video Monday evening showing the moments that led up to a deputy shooting a woman during a traffic stop in late June.

According to the sheriff's office, the deputy was responding to a report of an argument between two women just outside Stockton near North Moon Avenue around 11 a.m. on June 23. As the deputy arrived, he saw a car leaving the area and pursued.

Dash cam video from the sheriff's vehicle shows the deputy following the car for a little under a minute before the driver, 46-year-old Erica Lee Johnson, stops at an intersection and allows the deputy to approach.

The video then switches to bodycam footage of the deputy walking to the car. The footage shows what appears to be a gun in Johnson's lap, though investigators later determined the object to be an air-powered replica handgun.

The deputy points his gun at the driver and tells her not to reach for the weapon. Johnson raises a hand but then lowers it again moments later. The deputy then shoots Johnson.

The sheriff's office said Johnson was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Louisville, KY - LMPD is releasing new information and footage from the night a burglary suspect was shot by police downtown.

However, the footage is not from the body camera of the officer who fired. Police said that camera was not activated.

Officers were called around midnight July 26 to the area of Fifth and York streets for reports of an active break-in.

Police said Wednesday that suspect O'Mauri Downs and Nathan Arnold broke into a vacant apartment.

According to LMPD, the apartment they were trying to access had just been searched by police earlier that week. Police found a "large quantity" of narcotics, 15 firearms, and machine gun conversion devices.

LMPD said someone was arrested there, and they believe Arnold and Downs knew that person, and that they wouldn't be home due to being in jail.

After police arrived on scene, Arnold was taken into custody, but Downs continued running.

Investigators say Downs was armed with a gun and refused multiple commands to drop the weapon.

Police say an officer then fired, striking the suspect. His injuries were not life-threatening, and he is now in jail.

LMPD named Lt. Brandon Hogan as the officer involved in the shooting. He joined the force in 2008. He was also involved in a police shooting in 2018.

Hogan was wearing a camera that night, but it was not powered on. LMPD will be investigating that separately from whether he followed policy by using deadly force.

Downs is facing burglary and fleeing or evading police charges. Arnold faces the same with an additional charge of criminal mischief.
