LMPD Release Bodycam Footage From Officer-Involved Shooting With Armed Suspect
Louisville, KY - Metro Police have released body camera footage hours after an officer-involved shooting at an eastern Jefferson County apartment complex.
According to Chief Steve Conrad, officers were looking into a suspicious vehicle at the Breckenridge Square Apartments around 1 a.m. Saturday.
Conrad says three people were inside the vehicle and officers asked them to exit. The driver complied but the front seat passenger, identified as 20-year-old Elijah Eubanks, refused.
That's when police say Eubanks pointed a revolver at them and fired a shot and officers then returned fire. The officers were not injured.
Those officers were identified as Eric Goldschmidt and Ian Stuart. Goldschmidt has been with the force since Feb 2015 and Stuart, since June 2016.
Eubanks was transported to University Hospital where he was listed in stable condition.
Police were unsure if Eubanks was wanted for a crime.
The investigation remains ongoing.
