ELKHART, Ind. — A northern Indiana police officer fatally shot a man moments after the man had shot and killed a toddler during a domestic dispute Friday morning, authorities said.

The man was shot in an alley less than five minutes after he had fired a gun at a woman and the bullet struck and killed a 2-year-old, Elkhart Police Chief Kris Seymore said.

“Officers made contact with the suspect and attempted to gain his compliance. At that time an event, which details are unknown at this time, unfolded. During the event, an officer discharged his weapon striking the suspect and causing his death,” Elkhart police said in a statement.

The names of the child, the man and the officer have not been released.

The shootings occurred about 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometers) miles apart.

The officer involved in the second shooting was placed on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of both investigations.

Neither the officer nor any bystanders were injured.
