A female adult victim had been battered and struck with a claw hammer by 59-year-old Shawn Palacat. While speaking to the victim, Palacat appeared from his apartment and approached the two officers with a large kitchen knife. One of the officers gave commands to Palacat to drop the knife but he did not comply. The officer then drew and deployed his taser at Palacat. Palacat swatted the taser probes and wires then advanced toward the officer and raised the knife up to attack him. The second officer then fired his duty handgun at Palacat, striking him. Officers summoned medical aid and began an assessment of Palacat's injuries. Paramedics arrived and performed life-saving measures until he was pronounced deceased at the scene. The weapon Palacat confronted officers with was a large kitchen knife, approximately 12 inches in total length with a black handle. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Special thanks to Shout-Out Supporters on Patreon: - 'DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse' - Spencer Scott - RayJayOB - Sean Sheldon - Marvin Tobar - Lee Roberts - 'Mr. Unknown' - 'iqtester.org' - Josef Rex - 'Skydog' - Jesse - Ádám Lampért - Sabrina Bewey - Kelly Goodwin - 'wuzy' - 'Jun' - 'Xenik' - 'Rom' - kyle McBurnett - 'Fishy Tuna' - 'GotsNoGroove Cheryl' - 'CombatKid' - Exus Altimus - 'Dawesenm' - Paul Rohrbaugh - 'Krazy KZ' - Koby Bland - Christopher Payne - Zach Williams - Michael R Sheffield - Rich Biggs - 'JTrip' - Brant Eaton - 'wvot' - James Pringle - 'AccuShoot.com' - 'Sopaul' - Lisa Overly - Connor Davies - 'Necko' - Gerardo Flores - Anthony Eufemio - 'Donkbot' - Gage Kissinger - 'coco Coco' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/PoliceActivity Follow us on X: https://x.com/Police_Activity 🛍️ Check out our Amazon store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/PoliceActivity 🛍️ Disclosure: Please note that we will receive a small commission from purchases made through our Amazon store.
