COLUMBUS, Ohio — A man is charged with felonious assault after firing gunshots in an east Columbus neighborhood, which led to a barricade situation Saturday, according to the Columbus Division of Police.
Officers were called to the 1900 block of Clay Court, just east of South Nelson Road, for a report of a person firing shots. When officers arrived, the person was barricaded inside a home with a gun.
According to a complaint filed in Franklin County Municipal Court, 41-year-old Andre Green had fired multiple gunshots at a woman over a domestic dispute.
Court records also state Green fired the gunshots at the woman while she was sitting in her car and while running to a home on Clay Court for assistance.
According to court documents, another woman was struck in her face with shrapnel from the gunshots. A man was also struck while inside the home.
After multiple officers arrived on the scene, dispatchers told 10TV an officer fired a gun. Court records later clarified that the officer "engaged Green with his service weapon."
According to the complaint, multiple occupied homes were struck when Green fired a rifle and .50 caliber handgun gunfire.
Green then barricaded himself inside his home with his 4-year-old daughter.
Green released his daughter shortly after and was taken into custody.
The victims in connection to the shooting were taken to local hospitals and police described their conditions as stable.
