SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - The San Francisco Police Department has released videos of an attack inside a sandwich shop that ended with the fatal police shooting of a knife-wielding man.
Police Chief Bill Scott on Wednesday published footage from surveillance videos and body-cameras worn by two officers, including the one who fatally shot 26-year-old Nicholas Flusche last week.
Officials say the officers were walking their usual beat in the city’s busy downtown Market Street when they came upon the stabbing of a sandwich shop employee.
The videos show Flusche going behind the counter and stabbing the employee. They also show a woman intervening and hitting Flusche with a tray and a man aggressively pulling him away from the employee.
Flusche is then seen chasing after the employee and falling to the ground as two police officers intervene.
