The officer used his Taser, and Lowe fell to the ground but<br />
was able to reach into his pocket and pull out a handgun, firing<br />
one round that struck Holloway in the left side of his face,<br />
Carper said. “The officer fell to the ground and immediately<br />
returned fire with five rounds, striking the suspect multiple<br />
times. Despite his injuries, the officer was able to effectively<br />
request assistance for himself and the wounded suspect. The<br />
officer also provided for the safety of witnesses and bystanders<br />
by directing them to a place of safety.”<br />
Police played radio traffic of the incident during the media<br />
briefing. “609 Ingram. I’ve been shot. ... I returned fire. I need<br />
medics and I need crews, please,” Holloway told dispatchers.<br />
“609 Ingram. Please hurry. I’ve been shot on the left side of my<br />
head. I can barely hear my earpiece.”<br />
Another Dayton officer took Holloway in a marked cruiser to<br />
Miami Valley Hospital. His left temporal artery was torn in the<br />
shooting, but he was in stable condition. Dayton police who<br />
arrived provided aid to Lowe, and Dayton medics took him to<br />
Miami Valley Hospital. Police said he was in critical condition<br />
but was later upgraded to stable condition, police said.<br />
Holloway’s bodycam video, which was played during the<br />
media briefing, showed Holloway try to speak to Lowe and the<br />
point when Lowe suddenly turned around and punched the<br />
officer. Holloway immediately used his Taser and Lowe fell<br />
to the ground, but the Taser appeared to have limited effect.<br />
Lowe ignored Holloway’s commands to put his hands behind<br />
his back and get on his stomach. Lowe pulled a gun from his<br />
pocket and shot Holloway in the face; the video showed. Holloway<br />
returned fire, and requested help. He maintained contact<br />
with police dispatchers and asked concerned residents<br />
to stay inside and assured them that help was on the way.<br />
Carper said charges that will be filed against Lowe include<br />
two counts of felonious assault on a police officer as well as<br />
carrying a concealed weapon, weapons under disability and<br />
counterfeiting.<br />
