Lion was named as a suspect in the Nov. 19 shooting by police, but it appears he never left the hospital after being shot by officers who returned fire at him. Lion was taken to a Toledo hospital following the incident and was listed in critical condition two weeks ago, in the last MSP update on his condition.
The two officers shot in the incident were treated and released form the hospital with non life-threatening injuries.
The ordeal unfolded after maintenance workers arrived at Lion’s apartment in the 700 block of Washington Street. According to WTOL, a pair of 911 calls show an argument began taking place and both the worker and Lion called 911. In one of the calls, a 911 dispatcher told Lion to holster his gun when police arrived or he would be treated as a hostile.
It is unclear what exactly happened when officers arrived, but police say Lion fired at the two officers, injuring them. More officers arrived and fire was returned at Lion, who was struck. WTOL also reports Lion was served with an eviction notice the day before the shooting took place.
The maintenance worker was with pest control workers who were spraying the apartment for cockroaches when the initial argument began.
