Authorities have released more information regarding a fatal officer-involved shooting in Evansville. In a news conference held yesterday, the Evansville Police Department provided additional details about the incident. Police have made body camera footage available. The incident began when officers responded to a disturbance involving a woman on Cross Street on Wednesday evening. Later, they were called back to the same area after reports that the woman was walking outside with a gun. Tragically, an EPD officer shot and killed the woman. Authorities now confirm that the woman was armed with a realistic revolver-style airsoft gun. The Vanderburgh County Coroner’s Office has identified the deceased woman as a 34-year-old from Evansville. The investigation into this incident is ongoing.
