Months after a woman was shot by a Louisville Metro Police Department officer in Valley Station, police have released the body cam footage. Kentucky State Police released body cam footage from the incident that happened on Feb. 19 in the 9100 block of Chenault Road. LMPD officers responded to the area around 5:30 p.m. about calls of a mental health complaint. Police said the woman had a known history of mental health crises and was striking her car while pointing a gun at other homes. When they arrived, they found 52-year-old Candy Basil waving a gun in the streets, police said. In the body cam footage, police can be heard commanding her to put the gun down multiple times when they arrived. Basil can be seen approaching officers when they got out of their cars at the residence. An arrest slip says that Basil was at times pointing the gun at officers as she approached them. Officer Donald Wyatt, who has been with LMPD for 19 years, fired two shots at her after less than a minute of commanding her to drop the gun. Kentucky State Police said that both rounds hit her. Following the shots, officers began giving Basil first aid while they called EMS to the scene. She was taken to UofL Hospital to receive further treatment, police said. KSP's Critical Incident Response Team is handling the investigation, which is still ongoing, they said. Basil was in court on Wednesday on wanton endangerment of a police officer and menacing charges. She is currently on house arrest.
