According to police, the shooting occurred while the male officer was on a routine business check at the Ferguson Community Center.

At approximately 9:10 p.m., the officer witnessed a male suspect in the rear of the building. When the officer stepped out of his vehicle, attempting to make contact, the suspect began to flee from the scene. The officer then pursued the suspect on foot.
