NYPD self harm intervention falls apart

This footage comes from an NYPD incident in Brooklyn, wherein a hospital patient was reportedly cutting himself with what would be revealed to be a sharp, broken piece of a toilet seat. When the patient, later identified as Michael Lynch, 62 years of age, advanced on them with the improvised weapon, one officer fired his pistol while the other deployed a TASER. Neither were effective and Lynch closed them out. After four minutes of attempting to establish dialogue with Lynch, a second TASER deployment failed, forcing the officers to shoot him as he advanced. NYPD officers utilized TASERs three more times to get Lynch to drop the plastic shard. Lynch was declared deceased shortly after, despite being treated by hospital staff on-scene. Viewer discretion is advised.
