Officers were conducting surveillance when an unknown male attempted to open the officers’ doors and became increasingly agitated that the officers would not exit their vehicle. Officers observed the male remove his backpack, unzip it, and place his right hand in the backpack up to his elbow. Officers observed the male raise the backpack with his hand inside in a manner that looked like he had a gun in it and was about to start firing at them. In fear of their lives, one officer discharged his weapon striking the male several times. The injured suspect is in stable condition at the hospital.
