Job well done?

That was horrendous. Officers on their phones a foot away from the subject not even looking at him. No reactionary gap. No tactical plan. Allowing the public to have a go.

Youre lucky there wasn't about 10 injured or dead people there.

He looked like a crazed version of Freddie Mercury in that vest.  An extremely fortunate end though.

And then the 'duel' at the end between the officer with the baton and the knifeman, whilst the other police looked on and wondered whether to get involved.

Plus what was that at the end - did a MOP run up and grab the knife?  He was tackled immediately afterwards.

This is *exactly* the sort of scenario that a Taser can resolve instantly!

Surprised, considering it appeared most of them were carrying guns, that he was not shot when walking at officers with the knife. Especially when he started swinging towards the end.

 

Good result in the end however. Could have gone horrifically wrong though.

Not sure I'd be wanting to get too close with a Taser, at least not without a lethal option to go with it.
