An alleged homeless suspect was shot by police after a bystander accused him of brandishing a knife. “I just had a homeless person pull a knife on me,” the bystander said told police in a 911 call. Authorities said the suspect was taken to a nearby hospital and taken into custody.

So they open fire on a fleeing subject whom has his back turned to them the whole time..?
Police run after a man with a knife so they can claim I’m scared I needed to shoot him. If your afraid why are you running after the danger? You don’t run after a Tiger. You run away from the tiger
ITS JUST A KNIFE, we deal with it in bars every weekend, no reason to shoot if he is so far away as show the video ,,, many other options to stop it
Sierra, I don’t know how you can work for an organization that is bias. That is all
EVEN A BEAN GUN WOULD HAVE DONE THE JOB. WONDER IF THIS NEW GENERATION OF ROOKY COP'S ARENT HOME ON DAYS OF WITH HEAD PHONES AS FRONT OF TV SHOOTING GAMES WITH OTHER S WHO GET ADRENELIN AND POISONING REAL LIFE DUTIES IN THE REAL WORLD!!! Hmm
I BELIEVE THERE WAS NO DANGER. HE WAS NOT COMING AT THEM, BUT RUNNING FROM THEM HIS BACK TO THEM. I PERSONALLY WOULD HAVE GOTTEN CLOSE ENOUGH TO TAZER AND HOPE IT WOULD LOOSEN HOLD OF KNIFE.. COP'S ACT IN FEAR
Its Arizona, The cartel runs this state. The perp will be set free and the cops will be arrested.
He approached a car with someone in it while holding a knife. The cop was protecting the public
Thank god they are investigating the officer who potentially saved the life of the person in the truck. I hope we spend more of our tax money on investigating officers who save lives rather than getting the homeless out of the streets!
It's funny how people's pity for the homeless disappears once your community is overrun with them.
SHOW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
idk how i feel about this. i didn't see the officers or any person in immediate danger. shouldnt of fired a shot that could of been lethal.
YOUTUBE Teezy T Phoenix. song says it all.
Man was "experiencing homelessness." Natch.
Thank you officers for doing everything possible to resort to what had to be done.
This joke cop is being investigated .
Sooo, did he assume the guy he started interacting with was the suspect in question?
Too many questions since this channel cut out the core part of the video that is in question
I wanna see the shot ☹️
Tyler Mac HEY drop the kid boy get your hands behind the tractor do it now
Wtf he shout? Anyone able to make it out?
nancy pelosi has a big house , multiple houses even , and loves these criminals .
put them there !!!
It’s unfortunate that his injuries weren’t life-threatening. Oh, well. Hopefully, next time….
This case should get dismissed
Agaga
Crappy report, over edited and censored. Trash.
How much patience are we supposed to have with repetitive misbehaving citizens?
That’s one way to combat homelessness.
The person is running away from the police and has his back to them. He's no danger to the Police but gets shot anyway.
This is not the country it once was…sad…it used to be there was no tolerance for criminals but the crybabies in the US want criminals to commit a crime and walk away….that's why we have crime…freedom had went too far …
He was running because he committed a crime…homeless or not….
Can't let him get to the car
