Officers en route to scene just after 4:30 were told person was walking on the Road. First officer stopped traffic at 4:37. Subject seemed distressed somehow. Officer reported possibly seeing a knife in person’s hand. Two other officers arrived. (1/?)
Officers told man to stop, drop the knife. Man kept approaching. Officers fired, another officer tazed man after trying to calling him to drop knife after 2-3 minutes. The man is now at the hospital in stable condition.
Incident was fully captured on body cams from 2nd and 3rd officers. 1st officer was plain clothes with badge. All officers are experienced with APD, not new.
Hopefully, APD will release incident video within 10 days. Anywhere from 2-5 shots were fired. First officer did not have taser on them, only firearm and badge.
Scene unfolded quickly, no time for discussion to decide between using firearm or taser, according to APD.
