Columbus, OH - The Columbus Division of Police released body camera video showing the moments before and during the fatal shooting of a man by two officers as they responded to a domestic violence call Tuesday night.
According to police, officers were called to the 800 block of Wilson Avenue near East Livingston Avenue around 11:55 p.m. on a domestic violence call. The caller told dispatchers that a man assaulted a female and said he was going to get a firearm.
As officers arrived and began walking toward the home, police said they heard multiple gunshots and saw a man, later identified as 33-year-old Isawan Foster, discharging a firearm.
Bodycam video released by Columbus police shows around 11:58 p.m., two gunshots are fired, and a voice shouts "Oh" multiple times. Police said Foster was armed with a gun, as the video shows him firing shots toward the building while backing out from an entryway.
"Hey," the officer wearing the body camera can be heard saying before he and the other officer fire dozens of shots at Foster lasting about five seconds. The time elapsed from the first gunshot fired to the end of the officer's gunfire is about 10 seconds.
The video shows Foster lying on the ground after the gunfire ends. The officer wearing the bodycam begins reloading his gun and then yells, "He's still up." The other officer can be heard saying, "Do not (expletive) move."
Officers rendered aid to him until medics arrived. Foster was transported in critical condition to Grant Medical Center, where he was later pronounced dead.
A firearm was recovered at the scene. Police previously said it’s not clear who or what Foster was shooting at as the officers were approaching.
In an update Wednesday, police said 32-year-old Brandon Wade was taken into custody at the scene and was charged with domestic violence and assault.
