Ohio officer shot, suspect later found dead

COLUMBUS (AP) — An Ohio police officer has been shot in a confrontation with a man who authorities say was later found dead inside an apartment.

Columbus police say officers responding to a report of a domestic dispute knocked at the apartment late Monday and were met with gunfire coming through the door. One officer was shot in the leg.

Police exchanged gunfire with the suspect and were later joined by SWAT members, who set off tear gas and entered the apartment after a 90-minute standoff. Inside, police say they found a man dead of an apparent gunshot wound. It’s not clear if it was self-inflicted or if the shot came from an officer’s gun.

The wounded officer was hospitalized in stable condition. Names have not been released.
