2:35Now PlayingThe family of 23-year-old Casey Christopher Goodson Jr. is demanding an investigation into his death.
Goodson was shot by a sheriff deputy in Columbus, Ohio. According to the deputy he was investigating a report he filed where he witnessed a man with a gun. He then began engaging with Goodson verbally.
At some point the deputy fired his weapon killing Goodson. Officials say a gun was recovered from the 23 year old.
The deputy who is a 17 year veteran of the force was not wearing a body camera. The family says his version of the encounter doesn't make sense.
According to Goodson's family Goodson was returning home from a dentist appointment when he was gunned down by a deputy in front of his grandmother and two toddlers. The deputy then pointed his gun at family members and demanded they come outside. Family members say they saw Goodson's lifeless body laying next to three sandwiches he picked up on his way home, but no gun.
