ORRVILLE, Ohio — The Bureau of Criminal Investigation is investigating after Orrville officers shot a Maple Heights man who was carrying a pistol while standing over the body of an unconscious woman, according to Orrville police.
Officers said they were called to the 200 block of Chateau Circle on Wednesday afternoon for a report of a man with a gun.
When authorities arrived, they found a man, identified as Kenneth Crenshaw, 33, of Maple Heights, with a pistol standing over a body of an unconscious female, identified as Jadea Jarvis, in a pool of blood.
The department said officers gave numerous commands to drop the weapon, but police say he ignored them and repeatedly shouted at officers to "shoot me!"
Crenshaw was struck in the right arm by gunfire and was transported to Orrville Aultman Hospital where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries.
Jarvis was transported to Orrville Aultman Hospital where she died.
Crenshaw was eventually transported to Wayne County Jail and charged with aggravated murder.
