California Cop stops stabbing in progress
This bodycam footage shows a Santa Clara police officer responding to a 911 call regarding a stabbing. The victim managed to take the knife, which broke, away from the attacker, whereupon he pulled out a second knife and continued trying to stab the victim. The officer arrived to see the struggle happening in real-time, whereupon he shot the suspect. Viewer discretion is advised. The 911 call stated that the suspect, Mohammed Nizamuddin, 30 years of age, was stabbing one of his roommates with a large knife, at which point police were dispatched. As they travelled to the address, the situation evolved. The victim managed to wrest the knife from Nizamuddin, and it broke. Clearly committed to murdering his roommate, Nizamuddin drew a second knife and resumed stabbing. By the time the officers arrived, the victim had been stabbed several times in the chest and abdomen, and had suffered defensive wounds to his hands. The officers forced entry and found Nizamuddin mid-stabbing. Although there were three other people in the home, they apparently did nothing but call 911. As the suspect's hand came down with the knife, the officer shot four times, hitting Nizamuddin with all four rounds. The police removed the victim from the home and rendered medical aid until EMS arrived. Although aid was also rendered to a handcuffed Nizamuddin, he died at an area hospital. Despite his extensive injuries, the victim survived. No officers or other persons were hurt.
