COLUMBUS, GA (WTVM) - A large law enforcement presence is on the scene at a home on Hilton Ave, near Lookout Drive and Cherokee Avenue, after a Columbus police officer was shot, according to a source close to News Leader 9. 


The officer was transported to Midtown Medical Center after being shot in the shoulder and is to be OK. The bullet did not penetrate the officer's bulletproof vest and he has since been released from the hospital. The officer's identity has not been released at this time. 


“There was a police officer shot it appears the bulletproof vest stopped the bullet. The bullet did not penetrate the skin [and it] does not appear to be a life-threatening injury,” Columbus Mayor Teresa Tomlinson said. 


Columbus Police Chief Ricky Boren said during a police briefing that following a burglary call, officers responded to the scene and noticed a scooter, which was stolen from 18th  Avenue, behind the home. 


The family arrived home to see the scooter and did not enter the house, but called the police. Officers went in to find the person inside the home and shot an officer.
