Both the wounded man and the officer who shot him have been identified.
Jamie Donnelly A man shot and wounded by a Tucson police officer last month as well as the officer who shot him have been identified in a new report.
Before the shooting, dispatchers received a 911 call from mental health professionals who said Taylor was talking about ending his life and was armed with a gun. During the phone call, dispatchers heard what was believed to be a gunshot. A sergeant with training in crisis intervention spoke to Taylor on the phone and tried to deescalate the situation, asking him multiple times to stop moving around and put the gun down.
The Pima County Sheriff’s Department and the Oro Valley Police Department will be handling the criminal investigation. TPD will conduct their own administrative investigation.
