One Buffalo Cop is in the hot seat after hitting a knife-wielding man with his truck. The Buffalo Police Department is now decided to launch an internal investigation so they can figure out what lead a police officer hitting a knife-wielding man with his truck.
The incident initially happened inside a home in the area of Chicago and Fulton Streets. The man with the knife was taken to ECMC with non-life threatening injuries and is now in custody. In the video, we can see this officer just take and ram his SUV into the man. The man was threatening to kill officers and approaching them with the knife. An eyewitness says the man was threatening to harm himself. She says it looks like the only man in danger was him. She says she did not see him threaten any officers but then again he did have a knife so there was no telling what was going through his mind.
Check out the full encounter in the video below.
