The following News Release from Mansfield Police Chief Jason Bammann was posted on social media on Friday evening:

At approximately 3:34 PM on Friday, November 8 Officers responded to 300 Wood St. Apt. 14 after receiving a report of a Domestic Violence incident. Upon arrival, neighbors advised Officers that they heard gunshots coming from the apartment, prompting Officers to immediately enter the residence.

Upon entry, Officers found one male and one female victim suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. Officers rendered medical aid until Mansfield Fire Department personnel arrived on scene and transported both victims to Ohio Health, where the female victim was pronounced deceased a short time later. The male victim is still being treated at Ohio Health in critical condition.

During the investigation, it was found that both victims appeared to have sustained gunshot wound(s); however, detectives do not believe there to be any additional persons involved in the shooting at this time. The Richland County Coroner’s Office will be sending the victim for an autopsy as this is an ongoing investigation.

Major Crimes detectives are working to determine what led to the shooting and this tragic event. Additional details will be released once they are available.

Anyone with information about this investigation is asked to call Major Crimes Detective Kory Kaufman at (419) 755-9748.
