Overview

Isaiah Tucker died at a local hospital after an incident at about 2:20 a.m. Monday at a home in the 300 block of Knapp Street, Oshkosh Police Chief Dean Smith said during an afternoon news conference. An officer fired at Tucker "several times" as Tucker drove a car toward the officer while trying to flee the scene, the chief said.

The two officers involved in the incident, whose names authorities will not release until investigators interview them, are on paid administrative leave, Smith said.

The Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation has taken over the investigation and will be reviewing the officers' body cam footage of the incident, Smith said.
