Officer shoots, kills woman at Temple Terrace City Hall after she charged with knife, police say
Tampa Bay Times ^ | 5/29/20

— A police officer shot and killed a woman outside of City Hall on Friday afternoon after she charged at the officer with a butcher knife, Temple Terrace Police Chief Kenneth Albano said in a news conference.

Albano said the woman, identified as 21-year-old Heba Momtaz Alazhari, charged at the uniformed police officer for “unknown reasons” after she had requested assistance.

A recording of the incident shows the woman sitting outside of City Hall, waiting for the officer to approach her. Once he was within about five feet of her, she can be seen pulling out the knife.

Evidence markers are seen on the ground Friday, May 29, 2020 in Temple Terrace. A police officer shot and killed a woman at City Hall Friday afternoon after she charged at the officer with a knife, Police Chief said in a news conference.

“Had no alternative but to shoot,” Albano said of the officer, who was not named.

The woman was shot about 1:15 p.m. and was transported to a local hospital, where she died. The officer sustained non-life-threatening injuries during the attack.

The officer has not been placed on administrative leave yet, Albano said, but it is the department’s procedure to do so.

The Temple Terrace Police Department will work with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office to investigate the incident, Albano said.

The video released by police did not have sound. Albano said he was close by, however, and heard the officer shouting at the woman to "drop the knife, drop the knife” multiple times.

“We want it to be clear that this was unprovoked,” Albano said.

My theory is that she was sexually attracted to police officers, and because she held that attraction as a sin, she decided to go jihad on the first man in blue she met after attending her local Imam.

Ugh. What a rather broad generalization.

I rate folks by their behavior, nothing more, nothing less.

Though it doesn’t matter, you just slipped a bunch of notches on my scale. Shame.

Ever read the account of the Lord God and Abraham regarding the destruction of Soddam and Gomorrah?

Peradventure there are 5 righteous dark skinned men?

Probably is. As soon as I saw the name, the first thing I thought of, was JIHAD. 😁

Authorities are searching for a motive. They will be searching for a motive until after minimum entropy in the Universe has been achieved.

When a muzzie is involved, the motive will NEVER be discovered, since we all know Islam is the religion of piece, I mean peace. /S

A generalization is a fools stance.

BTW, shades of melanin, nothing more nothing less.

I invited me. And it’s not a generalization if it’s backed up by facts. Read post 16 again. And it’s not melanin it’s muslims, who have a rather distasteful habit of killing anything unlike themselves.

Whenever I see muslimbs in their goth war outfit, I give them wide berth and keep my hands close to my concealed weapon.
When I'm at Lowes if I see Mid Eastern looking people buying fertilizer or metal pipes I can't help but get suspicious. By the same token if I'm at a Petco and I see an effeminate looking guy buying ha.sters or gerbils I can't help but snicker, but that's just me 🙄

I favor that Guatemalan rum - Ron Zacapa.
But since you are buying, I accept your offer.

Indeed, somehow a response to another topic thread was posted in this one. So, for the record, I have no issue with the shooting of this person.
Certainly looks like a justified lethal force encounter.

My post, appearing in this thread, was intended for a racist and bigoted comment by the addressee.

I responded to your post thinks ng your response was to that topic, not this thread.

Having fought Islamic forces over multiple OEF/OIF deployments, I fully agree that their mentality is evil beyond what most realize. Cult of death.

Mod can delete the post if desired....

You are a nice guy I am sure.

It appears my post , which was to a different thread, somehow was inserted here.

Thanks for your pithy and edifying comment.

On the other hand, seeing an incongruous comment so obviously out of place and belching out a stupid insult may be telling as to who is an idiot.
