Believed to be an illegal.

It’s a sad state of affairs when several cops can’t disarm a woman with a knife. Didn’t they have a taser?

[FoxInSocks]

I guess nobody was carrying a Taser or anything less lethal than magazines of 9mm.

[ZULU]

Bingo.

Suicide by cop

[Secret Agent Man]

Good. Equal treatment. Feel bad for the officers and what they now have to go through.

[Seruzawa]

Real bunch of heroes here.

Seems as though a judicious skilled use pf a baton would be sufficient to quell the fray anticipated. Was a killing gunshot really necessary? I'm a 2nd Amndmt believer, but dispatching an knife attacker with a nightstick or baseball bat ought do do the job for the LEO, particularly if he/she has backup.

Please correct my opinion if you think this is a wrong concept refarding level of force acceptable in such a situation. I do realize that currently equipped, most LEOs do not usuallu have a baton directly at hand, only a firearm.

(Unless anyone's life has become very cheap, that is.)
