        More accurately, "shot while threatening police with a knife."

        The bottom line is obey police officer's orders to stop moving towards him and drop the knife. Sadly, the guy committed suicide by cop.

        Thank God someone has common sense here. Cops aren't the parents, relatives nor are they psychologists.

        that is what i always say. people rely on cops to do things that is not their job. like parents that expect teachers to raise their kids

        He called cops and reported himself as having a knife and a gun. When cops arrived he lunged at them. He wanted to die and got his wish
