[QUOTE="Tech93, post: 342129, member: 1527"] Very unfortunate situation but if you watch the video, the police repeatedly asked him to drop the knive. The police don't fully know what they are dealing with when the show up on this kind of situation. The original call stated he had a gun too. Based on his mom's comments he fought with depression and had tried twice to commit suicide. It almost sounds like he had a death wish telling the cops to shoot him and maybe didn't want to do it his self. I've read that the GT police don't have tasers. If true then maybe they should invest in them. Based on the information, though, I feel the cop did what he was trained to do. Also, cops are trained to shoot for the chest area. I pray for his parents, the cop, and everyone else affected by this situation. [/QUOTE]
