Once officers got to the home, they found a man in the backyard next to the house. That’s when officers say they noticed the suspect, 77-year-old Otto Coleman, had a knife.
The officer could be heard telling the man to drop the knife. Police paused the video just before the officer fired his first shot.
Afzal said Coleman held onto the knife after the shooting, and they had to get it from him before providing first aid.
Medics then took him to the hospital, and he survived.

I guess the story meant that police paused the video during their press conference. At first I thought it meant that cops at the incident turned off their body cameras right before the shots were fired. That would be bad!
