DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — A suspect is on the run after authorities say he killed his girlfriend before shooting several rounds into a DeKalb County Police officer.
Police say 27-year-old Otis Walker fatally shot the woman around 12:30 a.m. Aug. 1 after a "domestic dispute between the boyfriend and girlfriend" escalated. Walker then reportedly shot Derek Nunn, a 3-year veteran with the DeKalb County Police Department, as they tried to approach the scene.
Walker ran off from the home.
But according to public records, it's not the first time police were called to the home where the shooting reportedly happened.
A summary of calls to the home off Hodgdon Corners Cove showed police had been dispatched there eight times before, including one call less than an hour before the fatal shooting:
