officer involved shooting

St. Joseph County prosecutors have charged 55-year-old Stephen Sherwood, on parole for beating a 4-year-old girl to death in 1995, with attempted murder after a New Year's Eve home invasion and stabbing in Mishawaka.

Police say the armed suspect held three adults and two children hostage for over five hours Sunday before SWAT officers negotiated the safe release of all hostages, and took the suspect into custody after an officer shot him.

An officer's body cam video shows stabbing and confinement suspect Christopher Chester coming at six officers with a hammer. Two fired shots at him, hitting him with eight bullets. He died two hours later at a hospital.

Following protocol for officer-involved shootings, Mishawaka and St. Joseph County police are investigating the shooting. Police had not yet released details of what happened, names of the person killed or the names of the two South Bend officers who shot them.

Before trading fire with the shooter and being hit with a bullet, Corporal Paul Vandenburg had been urging two bystanders who were capturing video with their phones to run away.
