The caller said the adult male in the apartment had a history of mental illness and was irrationally.
The first officer on the scene was immediately assaulted by the man mentioned by the caller, and that resulted in the officer shooting the man multiple times. He was taken to Moses Cone Hospital, where he is reported in critical condition.
