UPDATE 4:15pm: New story information can be found here.
According to multiple news outlets, a man was killed late Wednesday night in an officer-involved shooting in Spring Hill.
The TBI is investigating the incident. The shooting occurred around 11pm at a home in the 1100 block of Weaver Farm Lane.
Susan Nilan with the TBI told local news stations that officers first responded to the home after reports of a domestic disturbance. The officer encountered the subject outside of the home and had an exchange with the subject and the officer opened fire, shooting the man.
“The man involved came outside and had some sort of exchange with the officer,” City of Spring Hill Communications Director Jaimie Page said. “Whatever occurred between them – it’s not clear until they do the investigation – the officer shot him.
The man was transported to a hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
It’s unclear at this point what led up to the shooting. Neither the officer nor the man has been identified and the incident remains under investigation. The 911 call involving the incident is still unavailable. Nilan said it’s not TBI policy to identify law enforcement officers involved in officer-involved shootings.
We defer to the local agency to provide that information as they determined to do so,” she said.
