The San Jose District Attorney’s Office announced that they will not charge two San Jose police officers who were involved in a fatal officer-involved shooting at the Metcalf Energy Center in January. Around 5:00 p.m. on January 9, 2018, Thompson Nguyen drove to the plant on Blanchard Road, climbed over a fence and began to stalk the campus, carrying a hatchet in one hand and a metal staff in the other. Authorities said he also had another hatchet, three pipes, seven knives, nunchucks, a GoPro camera, and a sword. According to the DA’s Office, Officers Adam Hutson and Timothy Faye arrived soon after and tried to get Nguyen to drop his weapons. Nguyen told officers, “Shoot me!” and “Kill me!” numerous times. One officer replied, “We don’t want to shoot.” Body cam footage released by the DA showed officers following Nguyen for several minutes and asked him nearly 30 times to stop before the shooting.
Officer’s fired on Nguyen once he approached them with the hatchet and the metal staff and got within striking range. Authorities say Nguyen suffered from mental illness. Prosecutor David Boyd said, “Any reasonable officer would conclude that Nguyen, whether as a result of a mental health issue or not, had decided that he was going to die that day and that if he had to attack an officer with a weapon to make it happen, he was going to do so.” Nguyen was pronounced dead at the scene. According to the DA’s report, after the shooting, officers found a fake police badge and journals in Nguyen’s car in which he wrote that Metcalf employees had put microchips in his brain.

The officer axed twice to drop it.
Oh good, another hatchet video
They say non-lethal weapons but do they aim a machine gun? how does it work, is it some kind of reverse psychology?
No pepper spray, no taser, just use lethal force. The US "mental healthcare system" at work.
They all scream SHOOT ME!!! until they have a few slugs in them .. then they sing a whole different toon
it is so hilarious how tasers works so much better in patty mayo video xD
What are you doing stop
Que when stop doing the police estoy you are what you want bien
What are you when you police when want the stop doing officer when you
News report: innocent man walking home trying to chop up some fire wood get's fatally shot by police. Family say he's a good natured caring man.
1:30 isn't it cool to hear the sirens in distant as soon as he had requested back-up
His life must've really sucked.
He's a lumberjack and he's not OK.
Taze him. Police code for ‘empty your magazines into him’. Clever.
Dis anyone else hear "yellow titties got an axe"?
That was a bad day to LARP, being low on shield and medicine spells like that.
definitely not justified! he was walking away and the rifle was shot 7-8 times at close range.
Iam sure they could use less lethal…
Another happy customer!
He just want to find some wood to build a house
Why is everyone making fun of him? He was just trying to get the achievement, smh
I would have bump him with the police car and make him drop with all the stuff he has. That would be very effective and, guy would have been living now.
And this is why we stopped carrying swords.. poor peasant didn't stand a chance.
Oh sh—time to call in RED TEAM, lol
Was that a miniature golf thing they just passed?
YELLOW LEADER REPORTING IN lol
When your axe is sharpness 5 and you don’t want to lose it
He was walking past them by the time they shot him. Trigger happy fucks.
If you suspect mental illness, you then cannot assume that said person knows, comprehends or understands the commands being yelled out. Sometimes, compassion and empathy are as powerful as a gun. These cops go from being hot headed to semi kind then revert back, sad situation for all
* I'm not saying they're wrong, just feel there should be much more help available for mental health to prevent shit like this going down
Officer with the rifle: yeah buddy your about to get fucked
OMG Itâ€s 4:10AM…..I think I have a problem. Damn videos are addicting. Adrenaline fix….check.
5:45 Tase him
Shoots his gun
They didn't even try to back away or tase him smh he didn't have to die only if he wasn't bat shit crazy and the officers had better training/judgment ….
Jesus they smoked that dude
He was obviously a disgruntled lumberjack
The fucking open car door sounds in these videos always get me dying laughing. It’s a perp chasing, bad guy dropping, bad mother of a cop car and they can’t get take those beeps out of it. Hahahaha
'We dont want to do it'. Pigs literally have gun pointed at him.
This proves cops are cold-blooded machines because they are
trained that way (and become deadly after certain criteria).
No cop would shoot his mother if she 'forced his hand'.
This goes half for people you grow to like and is
totally absent for people of other races.
Justice arms your enemies and disarms you.
Voting gives your enemies power over you.
Axes weren't meant to be dropped. Suspects are though. Well done.
Im glad to see stupid people getting cleaned up – I mean if you didnt do shit just do what the police says and talk
I wouldn't like to see leathel used if this was less leathel
If he dindonuffin why does he want them to shoot 🤔🥴
So you brought a gun to an axe & pole fight 🤔
(No fair)
shoot legs I guess.
So much for the less lethal weapons
Clearly he was just on his way to the Wizard Of Oz auditions and gets shot.
Looks like a call of duty map
Nobody:
Absolutely no one:
Legend has it hold my beer.
