'Cops' crew member dies after officer-involved shooting | Local News - KETV Home
Not too much information yet on the details but it's too bad someone got killed in the crossfire. My thoughts with the family.
OMAHA, Neb. —A television show crew member seriously hurt in an officer-involved shooting Tuesday night has died, according to a source close to the investigation.
Authorities said the incident began as an armed robbery at the Wendy's near 43rd and Dodge streets around 9:20 p.m. An officer-involved shooting then occurred, according to police. Officials said the armed robbery suspect was struck by gunfire and taken to the Nebraska Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
A "Cops" TV show crew member was also seriously wounded. A source close to the investigation told KETV NewsWatch 7 that the crew member has since died. "Cops" has been filming in Omaha for much of the summer.
No other suspects were being sought by police, and no officers were hurt. Police Chief Todd Schmaderer and the mayor's communication director were at the scene.
