Omaha Police say the two officers in an officer-involved shooting are now on paid administrative leave, which is standard procedure, as the Omaha Police Department’s Officer Involved Investigations Team looks into a weekend shooting death.
The Nebraska State Patrol and the Sarpy County Sheriff’s Office are assisting with the investigation.
Investigators say police responded to a shots fired call near 30th and Marcy Streets early Sunday morning and found 23-year-old Jeramyah Wilson in a parked SUV.
An officer spotted a gun in Wilson's hand, and Wilson is accused of threatening police several times and refusing to put the weapon down before he was shot after making a quick movement towards the passenger side of his vehicle.
Wilson later died at a hospital.
Police say Jeramyah Wilson has a history of weapon related charges.
The incident was captured on the officers’ body worn cameras where all audio of the situation could be heard.
Police say, visually, the cameras were partially obstructed due to officers being behind cover for safety.
