Breaking news we first brought you late last night.
Yeah, an officer-involved shooting
is under investigation in the Maryvale neighborhood.
Danielle Miller live with what we've been learning overnight.
Danielle.
Good morning. This has been an hours long investigation.
Phoenix police still on scene here.
You can see many officers still here as well as the mobile command unit
and this where it happened completely roped off
as they continue their investigation.
Phoenix police say officers shot a woman in this neighborhood.
This is near 75th Avenue and Sells Drive,
which is in between Camelback and Indian School Roads. We're told
that officers were called to this area right around 7 15 last night.
Police encountered a woman armed with a handgun.
And at some point, after making contact with her, officers opened fire.
A neighbor providing Fox 10 with video,
we did remove the audio because of some of the language in that video.
But you can hear police commanding the woman to drop her weapon.
Then shots are heard and the woman falls to the ground.
Later video then shows officers rushing
in to detain the woman and render aid.
She was rushed to the hospital.
Phoenix police say DPS will now be investigating the shooting.
Factors that led up to it, that's obviously going to be investigated
by the Department of Public Safety's Major Incident Division,
who responds to all of our critical incidents.
So we're still going through that process,
and when we do have an update, we will probably provide
that with our critical incident briefing video.
And police say that no officers or community members were hurt
and there is no ongoing threat to the public at this time.
Also at this time, we don't have any details about the woman
or any information about her current condition. We will reach out
to the Phoenix Police Department to try to get those details.
Once we do, we'll pass them along to the newsroom.
We'll send it back to you guys.
Okay, we'll keep checking back in. Thank you.
