A police officer fatally shot a Black man early Tuesday in Columbus, Ohio, three weeks after a county sheriff’s deputy killed a Black man in the state capital, which ignited a round of protests against police brutality.
Though the Columbus officer did not have his body camera turned on during the shooting, a violation of department policy, the police’s body cameras are equipped with a feature that starts recording 60 seconds before they are turned on.
When the officer did turn on his camera, the playback feature captured the shooting. The footage, which the mayor said he expected would be released on Wednesday, did not capture audio, so any verbal exchange before the gunfire was not recorded.
The name of the 47-year-old man who was killed has not been released. Neither has the name of the officer. …
In the body camera footage, the police said, it appears that the man walked toward the officers with a cellphone in his left hand. An officer then opened fire.
No weapon was recovered at the scene.
The police said it appeared that there was a delay in rendering first aid to the wounded man, who died at a hospital shortly after.

The RNA vaccines approved for COVID-19 in the US both need to be distributed at extremely low temperatures. Like 40F lower than any other mass-distributed medicine.
