OZONE PARK, Queens (WABC) -- A man wielding scissors was shot and killed by police in the Ozone Park section of Queens on Wednesday afternoon.
Officers were responding to a home on 103rd Street after a mother called about her 19-year-old son acting erratically.
When officers arrived, they were confronted by the man who was wielding scissors.
NYPD officials say the officers attempted to take the man into custody and get him help, but instead, he pulled a pair of scissors out of a drawer and charged at the officers.
The officers initially fired their tasers at the man, in the living room kitchen of his second-floor home, but as his mother rushed to his aid, officials say "she accidentally knocked the tasers out of his body," rendering them ineffective
The suspect then picked up the scissors and came at the officers again, forcing them to open fire.
"It was chaotic, fast moving and they had to defend themselves," NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell said.
The man who was shot was taken to Jamaica Hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
The officers were not injured but were taken to an area hospital to be treated for ringing of the ears.

Knoxville, Tennessee, United States
The Knoxville Police Department body-camera footage from the April 27 police shooting of 25-year-old Jamauri Griffin shows the man firing a gun point-blank into the face of a woman inside her home.
Just before 7:50 a.m. April 27, officers Hunter Powers and Cayden Riddle arrived at the home on Santala Drive for a domestic disturbance call. A caller said a man had shown up at the house and was armed with a gun, a department spokesperson said.
Powers and Riddle entered the house, announcing they were police officers. Almost simultaneously, they see Griffin in front of them, holding a gun and standing close to the woman. As soon as they announced themselves, Griffin lifted his arm and fired point-blank at the woman's face.
The two officers fired multiple times in response, striking Griffin at least one time. The entire sequence from the time officers entered the home until Griffin was shot lasted less than 5 seconds.
The officers cleared away the man's gun and calmed the injured woman. Griffin was pronounced dead at the scene, while the woman was hospitalized at the University of Tennessee Medical Center for a gunshot wound to her face. Her injuries, police said, were not life-threatening.

(unused)Anchorage, Alaska, United States
April 1, 2019
A judge has thrown out a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the family of a Black man shot and killed by Anchorage police officers in 2019.
Three officers shot Bishar Hassan, a 31-year-old Somali American, when he walked toward them and pulled out a handgun, later determined to be a BB gun, according to a report by the Alaska Office of Special Prosecutions. The officers had responded to 911 calls about a man with a gun walking into traffic.
The report said Officers Nathan Lewis, Brett Eggiman and Matthew Hall were justified in their use of deadly force. But Hassan's family disputed the reports' findings and sued the officers and the city of Anchorage in 2021.
The family's lawyer, Rex Butler, said in a 2022 interview – shortly after he released video of the shooting – that the officers did not have a valid reason to have contacted Hassan, because Alaska does not have a law against carrying a gun. Butler also said the police dashcam video showed about two minutes had passed from when the officers shot Hassan to when anyone checked on him or attempted to render aid.
Hassan's shooting was the focus of a rally shortly after the video's release that was attended by more than 100 people.
On Monday, a U.S. District Court judge sided with the city and the officers. Judge Sharon Gleason threw out all 11 of the Hassan family's claims, citing video footage of the shooting.
“In sum, the responding officers' conduct was objectively reasonable because Mr. Hassan posed an immediate threat to the safety of the officers when he pulled his gun out of his waistband and pointed it at the officers,” Gleason wrote in her order tossing the claims.

Driver of stolen Lamborghini killed in crash after fleeing LAPD at over 100 mph
RESEDA, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Los Angeles police have released new video of a stolen Lamborghini fleeing officers at speeds over 100 mph before a violent crash that shredded the vehicle and killed the driver.
The incident happened in the San Fernando Valley in the early morning hours of April 6.
LAPD West Valley officers were on patrol around 5 a.m. when they pulled up alongside a gray 2019 Lamborghini Huracan. They noticed the driver was asleep at the wheel while stopped at the red light on Sherman Way at Reseda Boulevard.
They pulled the driver over on Sherman Way and asked for his documents - learning the Lamborghini had been reported stolen and the driver was wanted on multiple felony warrants.
The driver refused to get out of the vehicle, briefly arguing with the officers before taking off down Sherman Way at speeds later determined to have reached 113 mph.
The Lamborghini crashed into the center median only a few blocks away near Vanalden Avenue. As officers approached, they found debris scattered all over the street, and the core of the Lamborghini shredded to pieces.
The driver was launched hundreds of feet from the vehicle - far enough that it took a few minutes for the officers to locate his body.
Paramedics later pronounced him dead at the scene.
Police identified the driver as Elliott Dugan, 51, of Los Angeles
The department is continuing to investigate the incident, including a review to determine if proper procedure was followed. That review is expected to take several months.
"As part of the investigatory process, a pursuit investigation was also initiated," said Capt. Kelly Muniz with LAPD. "This pursuit investigation will be reviewed by the department upon completion for adherence to the law and department policy."
"In the next several months the LAPD will continue to investigate and analyze this incident. We will continue interviewing any new witnesses who may come forward and complete any forensic tests."
Full video of the incident can be seen on LAPD's YouTube channel here.
On April 6, 2024, at around 4:58 a.m., West Valley Division Patrol officers were traveling west in the 18500 block of Sherman Way. As they approached the intersection of Sherman Way and Reseda Boulevard, they pulled up beside a gray, 2019 Lamborghini Huracan, which was stopped for the red traffic light. The officers saw that the driver was sleeping and immediately repositioned their patrol vehicle behind the Lamborghini. Upon the traffic light turning green, the officers activated their police vehicles emergency lights and siren, then conducted a traffic stop on the Lamborghini. An additional Patrol unit that was driving by in the area also stopped to assist with the traffic stop. The driver of the Lamborghini was identified as 51-year-old Elliott Dugan. After questioning Dugan, one of the officers returned to his patrol vehicle, conducted a want/warrant check on Dugan and conducted a vehicle query on the Lamborghini. The queries revealed that Dugan had multiple felony warrants and that Lamborghini had been reported stolen. The officer returned to contact Dugan and made repeated attempts to have him exit the vehicle. However Dugan did not comply with the officers and after several minutes, sped away from the location at a high rate of speed. The officers returned to their police vehicle, activated their vehicle's emergency lights and siren and initiated a vehicle Pursuit. A few seconds after the initiation of the vehicle pursue, Dugan lost control of the Lamborghini while traveling at a high rate of speed and collided with the center median and several trees along the median. The force of the Collision caused Dugan to be ejected from the vehicle. Upon conducting a search for Dugan, he was located several hundred feet away on a nearby sidewalk. Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and pronounced Dugan deceased. The force of the collision caused the Lamborghini to be split into two main sections. The ensuing debris from the Collision also caused damage to multiple vehicles that were parked along Sherman Way.

Kentwood, Michigan, United States
Police video shows an unmarked Michigan State Police SUV hit a man as he ran from officers in Kentwood last month, followed by Samuel Sterling crying out in pain and officers telling him to lie still and breathe while EMTs were on their way. Sterling, 25, of Grand Rapids, died hours after the crash.
Michigan State Police on Friday afternoon released about 15 minutes of video on YouTube, calling it a “representative sample” of what happened.
“There are multiple variations of these videos due to the number of officers on-scene, but the videos being released are the most relevant and comprehensive,” MSP said in a release. “Redactions have been made to conceal the identity of undercover officers and unaffiliated individuals.”
There are three body camera videos and one dashboard camera video. MSP said they came from a trooper, a Grand Rapids police officer and a Wyoming police officer. MSP said that the detective sergeant who was driving the SUV was not wearing a body camera because he was assigned to a federal task force and the unmarked car did not have a dashcam.
Parents Andrica Cage and Michael Sterling and their attorney were shown the video by state police Friday morning before it was released to the public. They argue police didn't respond quickly enough to their son's cries for help and that the trooper who hit him should face criminal charges.
“I hope they charge him with the most serious crime that they can, because this wasn't no accident,” Michael Sterling said.
Attorney Ven Johnson, who is representing the Sterling family, said the video showed the officers on the scene acting with “callous disregard for human life, let alone disrespect for (Samuel) Sterling.”
“What we saw today was … way too much sound and way too much for any parent's eyes to watch their son writhing and literally moving in such pain, and we now know it's because he was dying,” Johnson said.
Johnson said MSP Director Col. James Grady was there when the family was shown the video.
“Grady reiterated … he personally, after seeing the video on the day of this incident, suspended the trooper without pay. Highly, highly unusual. And it tells us a lot as to what MSP is thinking about the lack of propriety, in other words, the wrongful conduct of this trooper,” Johnson said.

Manhuaçu, Brazil
In the early hours of last Saturday (4), in front of the Civil Police Station, in the Bom Pastor neighborhood, in Manhuaçu, a violent confrontation resulted in the death of a man. A federal highway police officer was attacked by Jurcério Geraldo de Oliveira, 57, who was armed with a machete. When defending himself, the PRF agent shot and killed the attacker.
Police work was progressing normally with Military Police and Federal Highway Police vehicles in front of the police station. According to reports, Jurcério Geraldo de Oliveira arrived at the scene in a red Fiat Strada and observed the movement before attacking the highway police officer. The PRF agent had arrived with a colleague who disembarked and entered the police station, while he parked the vehicle.
The attack happened quickly. A military police officer who was waiting in another vehicle saw the attacker leave towards the PRF and pull out the machete. It was at that moment that the PM shouted to alert the highway police officer. The agent drew his weapon and, even though he ordered the attacker to pass, he continued to attack him with the machete.
The shots resulted in the death of Jurcério Oliveira at the scene. The SAMU (Mobile Emergency Care Service) team was called, confirming the absence of vital signs in the attacker. The incident also resulted in damage to a Military Police vehicle, which was hit by projectiles.

Rio Linda, California, United States
March 23, 2024
Body camera footage released on Tuesday shows the moments that led to a Sacramento County deputy shooting and killing a man in Rio Linda earlier this year.
The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office released a narrated video that included dispatch calls and the body camera footage from the deputies who responded to reports of a man cutting himself with a knife at a home on March 23.
The Facebook video begins with a 911 call from the family of 38-year-old Christopher Gilmore, who told dispatchers he had cut himself in a bathtub, attempted self-harm in the past and suffered from schizophrenia.
Multiple deputies arrived at a residence on Campanile Street around 8:15 a.m., according to the sheriff's office.
The video shows them spending the majority of their time strategizing how to enter the home safely because they did not know exactly where he was and were told he was armed with a knife.
At the same time, the deputies were also talking with family members of Gilmore who had evacuated the home. They asked the family about his mental state and whether he had talked about wanting to die that day.
After nearly 20 minutes passed, the garage door opened unexpectedly and Gilmore was inside. In the video, the deputies can be heard commenting on Gimore's loss of blood and appearing to be incoherent.
Gilmore eventually began walking down the driveway with an object still in his hand as deputies tried to communicate with him. He mostly ignored them. His family was also trying to speak to him.
Deputies fired six non-lethal rounds at Gilmore and three rounds from a handgun. According to the sheriff's office, the knife Gilmore was holding was six inches long with a three-and-a-half-inch blade. Gilmore died at the scene, the sheriff's office said.
The deputy that shot him with lethal rounds has been with the sheriff's office since 2019, the sheriff's office said. He was put on administrative leave pending the investigation, in accordance with procedures.
The sheriff's office is still investigating the shooting but the family of Gimore has also launched their own investigation.
“He died right in front of me,” Bobbie Gilmore, Chris' sister told KCRA 3 in March. “They could have hit him with a Taser gun.”
The family released home surveillance video footage in April. They claimed then that Gilmore was holding a small disposable razor and not a knife. An attorney representing the family told KCRA 3 on Tuesday now admits Gilmore was holding a knife but upholds that he was not threatening anyone.
