The body cam footage shows an officer arriving at a residence on Aldrich Street, after the department received a report of a breaking and entering.
The homeowner told the officer that the suspect was banging on the house with a machete.
With help from neighbors, the officer found the man in the backyard of the house next door.
The video footages shows the man hold the machete to a dog's throat, before eventually charging at the officer while holding the machete, at which point the officer fires his handgun.
In the video, the officer states that he fired three shots.
The Cadillac Police Department said on Sunday that officers then rendered medical aid and began CPR, but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
"Pursuant to CPD protocol, the officer has been placed on administrative leave during the investigation," the police department said.
The police department said the investigation into shooting over to Michigan State Police.

I would have shot him as soon as he raised the machete over the dog, threatening to kill it.

There are a LOT. And I mean A LOT of times where people armed with some sort of blade or blunt force weapon charging at police, and there's definitely more than a few you can tell their objective isn't to commit suicide by cop. And I always wonder why the hell they think it'll go well for them lmao.

Usually people look at the ones that are holding the weapon of some sort. Here I caught myself looking at the poor dog that was so scared and confused. Good job officer.
