KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Police in Tennessee say officers who responded to a domestic situation fatally shot a man Saturday after he shot a woman in the face. The woman is expected to survive.
According to the Knoxville Police Department, two officers responded to reports of a domestic situation involving an armed man at a home on Saturday morning.
Seconds after they came inside, the officers encountered a man with a handgun who then shot a woman in the home, and police fired back at the man, hitting him at least once, the department said.
