UPDATED Wednesday, September 22 at 5 p.m. :
The Dayton Police Department just wrapped up a briefing on an incident Tuesday evening that ended with an officer shot and a suspect in critical condition.
The police played audio from police radios followed by body-cam footage from officer Thadeau Holloway, as he tried to detain 39-year-old AntWyane Deon Lowe outside an apartment complex on Ingram Street in Dayton.

The footage shows Lowe punching officer Holloway, then attempting to flee. Lowe was tased by the officer, and as he was on the ground he fired a gun, hitting the officer on the left side of his head. Holloway then fired five rounds, striking Lowe multiple times, until he hit the ground.
Footage shows Holloway bleeding from his wound, while nearby residents are heard saying “[Lowe] is still breathing.” A fellow police officer transported Holloway to Miami Valley Hospital. Dayton Fire Department personnel and medics arrived soon after and transferred Lowe to Miami Valley Hospital as well.
Lowe’s condition has been upgraded from critical to serious, but stable. Officer Holloway’s condition was listed as stable and non-serious.
Interim Police Chief Matt Carper commended Officer Holloway’s quick thinking and professionalism in a dangerous situation.
“Something that I would like to add that is remarkable, is the concern that he showed not just for his own well-being, but for the well-being of the suspect and those around him, the responding officers and the citizens in the area,” Carper said.
Carper hopes Holloway will be released from the hospital soon. Lowe is facing five criminal charges, including two counts of felonious assault on a police officer. Lowe has a prior charge for assaulting a police officer in 2013.
