The Montgomery County Coroner’s Office tonight said they were called to Miami Valley Hospital to pick up the body they confirmed was of the person shot by a Kettering police officer.
UPDATE @ 8:40 p.m.
Kettering police tonight confirmed an officer was involved in a shooting tonight, but would release few other details.
The Dayton Daily News I-Team’s officer involved shooting database – which keeps a tally of area officer involved shootings since 1995 – does not show any shootings involving a Kettering officer during that time period.
UPDATE @ 7:15 p.m.
A Kettering police officer shot a driver this evening after the man who got out of a minivan was pointing a gun at the officer, according to witnesses.
Crime scene tape is blocking the area where the shooting happened on Bataan Drive, which backs onto Craig Drive.

Residents said the man pointed his gun at the Kettering officer, who ordered the gunman to drop the handgun. When the suspect did not, they said the officer fired his weapon. CPR was underway when additional officers and medics arrived. The gunshot victim was taken away in an ambulance to Miami Valley Hospital.
A woman who had run from the gray minivan and another man were seen in handcuffs inside the yellow police tape zone. It’s not clear whether the man had been in the vehicle nor his role in the incident.
The officer did not appear to be injured, residents said.
