Omaha police said the man fled on foot after two officers pulled
him over during a traffic stop. Police said the officers chased
him through a parking lot, where they say he pulled out a
handgun as he scaled a fence. One officer shot him, according to
police.
Police said they provided emergency medical treatment before an
ambulance took him to a hospital, where the 22-year-old man
died. An autopsy is scheduled for Monday. The man's identity
wasn't immediately released.
Neither officer was injured. The officer who shot the man is on
paid leave during an investigation by Omaha police, according to
the Douglas County Sheriff's Department and Nebraska State
Patrol.
