Hayward, California — On May 27, 2020 at about 12:44 pm, Hayward police officers responded to a call for service of a suspicious person in the area of Bahama Avenue and Sleepy Hollow Avenue. Community members called to report that a man on a motorcycle was chasing someone and banging on doors in the neighborhood. Officers located the involved man. During the contact, an officer discharged his service weapon after the man approached officers with a knife. The man, in his 60’s, was transported to the hospital.

At the press conference, Chief Chaplin told reporters the suspect took responsibility before being released from the hospital. “He admitted to retrieving the knife and lunging at the officers with a knife and he apologized,” Chaplin claimed. “He said basically, it was his fault.” The suspect was booked into the Santa Rita Jail, and currently faces a charge of assault with a deadly weapon against a police officer.

  1. Do you think in the back of every police car there’s a woman that they bring along for training and her whole job is stand next to the offficer and scream to train them

  2. They tased him and without even knowing if it’s enough or not the cop instantly starts shooting. That cop should be fired!

  3. I don't understand how none of the comments are about the exchange with the driver lmfao I'm dead. He sounds straight out of Cheech and Chong, "Because you're a fucking idiot, I'll beat the fuck out of you right now!"

  4. Yea that was some shit coordination between officers right there. I mean heat of the moment, I get it, but damn. Dude was locking up from the tazer when homeboy opened fire

  5. You yell TASER loudly and several times so the pop doesn't trigger other officers to fire lethal. This is poor training… I mean, its technically a good shoot, but he should have been tazed first.

  6. Why don't the cops coordinate the user of non-lethal or lethal force? It's a bit weird that one chooses the taser and the other chooses bullets.

  7. You know what. Terrible choices but you can’t hate that unkilliable spirit he should channel that somewhere else

  8. dude where do you find cops like this i swear this was like an SNL skit or something there is no way this is real LOL
