A 43-year-old man was killed after five Columbus, Ohio, police officers discharged their weapons in response to an argument between two individuals outside of the Republican National Convention (RNC) security area in Milwaukee on the afternoon of July 16.
Milwaukee Police Department Chief Jeffrey Norman said at a press conference later in the evening that 13 Columbus police officers in town to assist with the RNC were assigned to bicycle patrol when they observed a man wielding knives during an altercation with another individual.
