* (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) * Roosevelt Island, New York — On August 5, 2023, At approximately 1130 PM, NYPD officers responded to multiple 911 calls at 540 Main St. regarding a 21-year-old man who was reportedly threatening a family member with a knife. The caller was a relative inside the location who also stated, the armed man was off his medication and under the influence of marijuana. Three officers entered one of the elevators and were preparing to ride it to the man’s floor, while two others were trying to prop open the lobby door with fliers in anticipation of backup. All of a sudden, the suspect emerged from the second elevator not occupied by officers and moved quickly towards an officer, swinging the knife directly at this officer. That officer retreated outside of the lobby and then the suspect charged towards the elevator occupied by three officers. One officer fired at the man with a Taser, and two officers pulled out their service weapons and shot the man multiple times at close range. The video shows the man on his back just outside the elevator as his right arm went limp. After the shooting, the officers tried to save the man’s life. The man was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced deceased. None of the officers or civilians in the area were injured during this incident. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Special thanks to Shout-Out Supporters on Patreon: - ’DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse’ - Dawesenm - Ryan Hurley - William Bowman - Leonardo Buzzolan - Kerrie Golden - Paul Rohrbaugh - Sandra McGreevy - Charlie Collier - Koby Bland - Cash MacGregor - ’Zixuno’ - ’InicRa’ - Christopher Payne - Juan Villagomez - Zach Williams - Michael R Sheffield - Rich Biggs - ’Ham_Radio’ - ’JTrip’ - Lee Roberts - Brant Eaton - ’General X’ - ’jadeennff’ - James Pringle - ’’ - ’Savage Training Group’ - Meighan Garrick - ’BoJassim’ - ’Dabster’ - ’Sopaul’ - Lisa Overly - Connor Davies - Paul Rohrbaugh - ’Necko’ - Gerardo Flores - Anthony Eufemio - ’Donkbot’ - Gage Kissinger - Eian Smith - ’HelloDarknessMyOldFriend’ - ’coco Coco’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Support us at BuyMeACoffee: Support us on Patreon: Follow us on Twitter: 🛍️ Check out our Amazon store: 🛍️ Disclosure: Please note that we will receive a small commission from purchases made through our Amazon store.
