The woman stepped out of a hotel room empty-handed to look at the officers who were standing in a stairwell below. She then went back inside. The report said the woman reappeared with a replica BB handgun a few moments later, pointing it at the officers.“A total of 13 rounds were fired between the two officers,” the report said.
