COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — A Columbus police officer responding to a reported shooting was bitten while trying to handcuff the suspect, court documents show.
Officers were sent Wednesday to reports of shots fired at the Windmiller Pointe apartment complex on the South Side. Police said a man was shooting a gun in the rear of the complex, by the Scioto River, and then was seen leaving on a four-wheeler.
The suspect, later identified as 25-year-old Kaden Adams, was found on the vehicle and detained. While making their way to the police cruiser, the officer called a Columbus Division of Fire medic to treat Adams for a suspected drug overdose.
