Hold it, don't bother stabbing yourself with that knife, we can help out with that.

Never mind the Taser...

BANG!

 

Metro Vancouver Transit Police spokeswoman Anne Drennan said an attendant at the Surrey Central Skytrain Station called transit police Sunday morning

to report a man behaving irrationally, banging his head against the wall and yelling and screaming.

Drennan said when the officers entered the Safeway, they saw a man with a knife who was repeatedly stabbing himself.

"They started talking to him, issuing commands, directions to drop the knife," she said. "He refused to so so.

 He advanced on the officers and shots were fired."

The man was rushed to hospital but later died of his injuries.

The office was lucky not to get hurt. A knife wielding man who is coming at you can only be dealt with deadly force. Watch this video and tell me you disagree :

That's an informative video and illustrates the problem officers face when confronted with a knife wielding suspect.
