The armed suspect charged police, MPD said.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) will review a fatal, officer-involved shooting in North Memphis early Friday morning.

Here’s what Memphis Police Department said about the shooting in a Facebook post:

“At 3:07 a.m., officers responded to a domestic violence call in the 3000 block of Dumbarton Road.

Officers arrived and heard an active disturbance inside. Officers located a wounded adult male and were charged at by an armed suspect. One officer discharged their weapon striking
the suspect.

The suspect and the wounded male victim were transported to Regional One Hospital in critical condition. The suspect was pronounced deceased and the injured male is now listed as stable. An officer was injured on the scene unrelated to the altercation and was transported to Methodist North in non-critical condition.”
