FRANCE. A gunman has shot dead three police officers who were called to a domestic incident in central France. The officers were trying to help a woman who had fled to the roof of a house in the small village of Saint-Just early on Wednesday. The gunman shot at the officers and set fire to the house. A fourth officer was wounded and the woman rescued. The fate of the suspect, 48, who is said to be known to authorities on child custody issues, is still unclear. The mayor of Saint-Just, François Chautard, told Le Figaro that the house had burned down and officers were trying to determine whether the suspect was still inside or had escaped. Elite tactical police officers and firefighters remain at the scene in the village in the Puy-de-Dôme department, in France's Massif Central mountain region. The Clermont-Ferrand prosecutor's office said one officer was initially shot dead and another wounded shortly after midnight, and then two more police officers were killed as they arrived at the scene.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — An Ohio police officer shot and killed an unarmed Black man while responding to a non-emergency call early Tuesday in the state's largest city, and hours later a furious Mayor Andrew J. Ginther ordered the police chief to take the officer's badge and gun. The officers involved in the incident did not turn on their body cameras until immediately after the shooting, but it was recorded because the camera captures 60 seconds of footage before it is turned on. It also appears there was a delay in rendering aid to the man, according to the city's office of public safety. The shooting comes less than three weeks after a Franklin County sheriff's deputy shot Casey Goodson Jr., a 23-year-old Black man, in the Northland area of Columbus. That shooting has prompted protests and demands for justice. The investigation into that shooting is being led by the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio, David DeVillers.
