Police in Royal Oak possibly saved the life of a man who began stabbing himself during an arrest in the parking lot of a Meijers grocery store Monday. Police in Berkley said they were notified about the possible sighting of a stolen vehicle in the area of Harvard and Webster roads. Royal Oak police officers found the vehicle parked in a Meijer’s parking lot and found a man sitting inside. When officers approached the vehicle, the man began stabbing himself several times in the leg with a knife. Officers broke the window of the vehicle and knocked the knife from the suspect’s hand, police said.
The officers immediately tended to the man’s serious injuries by applying a tourniquet to stop the bleeding until an ambulance arrived. “Initially the officers thought the subject was just pounding on his steering wheel with his fist. When they realized he was stabbing himself they immediately closed in and disarmed him. Despite the risks to themselves, they knew they had to act quickly or the subject would likely kill himself,†Chief Corrigan O’Donohue said in a release. Several stolen items were found inside the vehicle. The man remains hospitalized. Charges are expected.

Stab himself is a threat to an officers ?
Dude was giving himself the Bob Barker treatment LMFAO
My honie honor has been stained.
The only thing left for me is to commit seppuku.
a true samurai
why they didnt let him? land of the free…pffff…
You fkng see him stabbing his self do your fucking job
Did the cop actually say “get down on the ground†then say “get out of the car� Only a yoga professional could accomplish that!
jeez guys, he was just trying to commit sepuku too restore his honor.
the cops did fuck all loooool. He saved himself
The police was waiting for backup so he didn't get stabbed in the process. GOOD JOB
A for real ya, it was a 10" combat knife now would he hurt him self? That shit is no jOke 4reel!
The one thing we are missing in all these videos is why? Why was this guy stabbing himself?
sick country
Yes!!!!!! You saved him!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!
Cops did nothing, the guy got out on his own.
Reminds me of a joke, where a Frontier Trapper was caught by hostile Indians. They told him they were going to kill him and make a canoe out of his skin, so the Trapper pulled out his knife and stabbed himself all over shouting "Here's your FUCKING CANOE!".
I don't get how someone can even stab themselves, my brain would be telling me with all its might to not stab myself so I'd never be able to bring myself to do it
Let'm die.
One slice to the jugular dude, haven’t you seen Dexter?
No shooting wow…nice work officers.
lay down on the ground and get out of the car!! wait whaaat..
i condone the officer that floored it up parking lot then seen man stabbing himself get in there n save a life.
Well honestly people that are suicidal would take any risks to get out of an shit hole life it can be doing drugs and dying or fucking too much and die with disease or starting fights with gangs or drug dealers they take risky shit to die
SUDOKU!
red tape slow pokes
if he wanted to die why didn't he attack the cop with his knife?
I don't see the police doing any saving , all I see is them waiting for him to make a wrong move
I know that this type of situation guarantees you a trip to a psychiatric hospital, but does it also leave the man charged with anything? The description says charges are expected and I can't see why, the dude obviously has enough shit going on in order to convince himself to try committing suicide.
Parkinglot self vasectomy.
Wow, what heros', causing a suicide victim more harm.
Just let him finish the job and fill out the paperwork afterward.  Don't have to worry about anymore stolen vehicles with this guy at that point.
Cops are aiming a gun at a man who is stabbing himself probably trying to committ suicide ……………. Makes sense 😮
SO IS THERE A LAW AGAINST KILLING YOUR SELF
Will at least he didn't go the suicide by cop route.
Holy shit I worked at this Meijer a few years ago.
What did the guy stabbing himself get charged for?
If he was black, this situation would have been solved the exact same way.
Nice. wish my grass could cut itself.
Thats scary
Was that a meteor at 25 seconds in? top left corner? Or am I tripping….
Will at least he didn't go the suicide by cop route.
