A police officer in the US state of Ohio has shot dead a 16-year-old black girl while responding to an emergency call over an attempted stabbing.
Columbus police have produced bodycam footage which appears to show the girl attacking others with a knife before being shot.
Officials have said the officer opened fire in order to save the life of one of the girls. A woman identified in local media as victim’s aunt said her niece was simply defending herself after being attacked.
