TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - The Tallahassee Police Department is investigating an officer-involved shooting that occurred Monday night during a response to a burglary in progress call.

No one was reported to be injured in the incident at the Cove Apartment complex, at 2226 Mission Road, which happened about 9:47 p.m. Monday.

At the time a TPD patrol officer, Clifford Crouch, was responding to a burglary in progress call reported by a citizen.

The preliminary investigation shows Crouch arrived at the location of the burglary and encountered a person he believed was armed with a firearm, according to a TPD news release.

Fearing for his safety, Crouch fired his department-issued handgun.

As is standard procedure, the officer has been placed on administrative leave, and TPD’s Violent Crimes Unit is conducting an investigation.

Investigators are asking anyone with information about the case to call them at (850) 891-4200 or Crime Stoppers at (850) 574-TIPS.

Crouch was hired by TPD in December 2015 after working four years at the Baton Rouge Police Department.
