The Washington County (Minn.) Sheriff’s Office has released a transcript of a 911 call, during which a woman is fatally shot by her husband. As recorded on the logging tape, Off. Brad Allen arrived, confronted the husband, and then fatally shot him when the man pointed a gun at him. Trudy Propps dialed 911 to help get her reluctant husband to the local Veterans Administration hospital. During the call with an unnamed sheriff’s dispatcher, she also talked to Gerald Propps. About two minutes into the call Gerald apparently became angry, produced a handgun and shot his wife. Trudy managed to stumble into the hallway of the apartment building, where her daughter pulled her down the hallway and picked up the 911 call. After Off. Allen arrives, he yells for Gerald to put down the gun, and then a second round of gunfire is heard on the tape. Read more about the shooting here, and download (pdf) the call transcript here.
