Seattle Police drop armed suspect

This compilation of dashcam and bodycam footage shows Seattle Police officers responding to 911 calls regarding a man armed with a handgun- reports which were corroborated by security camera feed. Attempts to negotiate with and de-escalate the suspect rapidly failed as the suspect pointed his handgun at the officers, at which point they opened fire. Viewer discretion is advised. The first officer on-scene used his pistol whilst his backup got out of his vehicle with a patrol rifle. When the suspect pointed his handgun at the contact officer, the contact officer opened fire, downing the suspect. When the suspect refused to drop the weapon, the second officer neutralized the threat with the long gun. While not shown here, the report states that a 40mm less-than-lethal round was used to knock the handgun from the suspect's grasp, in order for the officers to begin CPR and medical aid. Despite these efforts, the suspect was pronounced dead on-scene. A bystander who was injured by shattered glass was taken to the hospital for treatment. No other persons were injured.
