Wellington, Ohio — The Wellington Police Department released bodycam footage of an officer shooting a man advancing towards officers with a knife. On July 23 at 6:16 pm, Wellington Police Officers were called to a residence on Courtland Street after neighbors reported that someone was breaking glass next door. At 6:26 pm, an officer reported that the man was throwing items, including a table, at her. One minute later, the man came storming out of the house carrying a knife. As he was running towards officers in the street, police attempted to subdue the man by deploying a Taser. But it did not work.

At 6:27 p.m., the man was shot by an officer, who then immediately called for backup and ambulance. The man who was shot, was later identified as 37-year-old Scott Baker. The officer who fired the shots then gave aid to Baker by applying pressure to his wounds until EMS arrived. A LifeFlight helicopter took off from Wellington about 7:30 p.m., headed for MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland with Baker on board. Baker is in stable condition and the officers involved were not physically hurt during the incident.

  1. He calmed down right fast, lead always has that effect, im glad cops are ok and mr Scott gets the help he needs

  2. Mr. Scott, having spent no time reading William Congreve's 'The Mourning'… decided to ignore the admonitions of the female police officer…now Senor Scott, residing at the GrayBar Hotel, can contemplate a famous line from said play..'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'………later, outside Scott's cell window some wag yelled….BooYa!

  3. I mean justified. And he was white. It’s kinda like race doesn’t matter, huh? Weird. Media has been lying to us for views and control? Naw

  4. this one of those women that fits in with the men. let’s buy her a beer. take a week off rook. they got it from there.

  5. After the lead injections suddenly Mr. Scott came to his senses, was cooperative and friendly and religious. 😆
    Maybe next time a wee bit sooner 🤔🤔

  6. A prime example of fear for cops resulting in far worse than just getting your ass kicked. Being shot in the intestines and possibly kidney will cause a lifetime of issues.
