COLUMBUS, Ohio — A Columbus police officer fired his weapon during a foot pursuit of two suspects Monday evening in the Hilltop neighborhood.
Police were called to an apartment building in the 3600 block of Eakin Road just before 9 p.m. following reports of a disturbance involving multiple people with firearms.
Once on scene, officers said they saw two males run around the outside of the building. While in pursuit, an officer fired his weapon once. No one was struck.
Officers took three people into custody, one juvenile and two men.
One of the three placed into custody was taken to the hospital after complaining of shortness of breath following the chase. That person has since been released from the hospital.
Detectives with the Columbus Division of Police Major Crimes Bureau are investigating the incident.
