Sandy, Utah — On Sunday, March 26, 2023, around 1:00 a.m., police from the Sandy Police Department were dispatched on reports of a person who was having a mental health crisis and was possibly suicidal. As an officer was on his way to the area, police learned that the person had left a residence in the neighborhood. That officer found the man, later identified as 33-year-old Dylan William Murphy walking along 1000 East at around 11600 South. Murphy crossed the street in front of the officer, and then started walking toward him. The officer gets out of his car and calls out to Murphy to show him his hands. Murphy starts running toward the officer. The officer then shouts “Hands!†at Murphy twice more before firing his weapon at least three times, about seven seconds after his first command to Murphy.
The officer was running backward while shooting at Murphy, and at one point fell on his back. Once the officer gets up, he shouts three more times for Murphy to show his hands, the footage shows. Murphy then charges the officer, and the officer shoots at Murphy twice more. The officer then yells again for Murphy to show his hands, and orders Murphy to roll back onto his stomach, to which he complies. The officer then orders Murphy to keep his arms out, but Murphy instead tries to get up off the ground. The officer repeatedly commands Murphy to remain where he is, but Murphy moves to a crawling position before standing up and walking toward the officer. The officer shouts three more commands, then shoots Murphy in the torso. Murphy then falls to the ground, and died due to his injuries. Murphy’s family, described him as struggling with drug addiction and that he was attempting to get help. The officer, who was not identified, remains on paid administrative leave. He has been a member of the department since March 2021.

That last shot was fucked
Considering he's stripping off during the encounter my guess is PCP.
People need to understand shot means shot, it doesn't mean dead. This isn't hollywood. Unless you get hit in the brainstem you can still fight through a gun shot for a while before going down.
Was this a one officer call? If not where was the back. There was no real reason to make contact, simply follow the guy until back arrives. Once the officer chose to make contact he was committed and his option were limited. The last shot may get him into trouble. I would get a good lawyer lined up just in case.
No law enforcement agency trains officers to shoot while running backwards.
Can we start hiring adults as police again 😂😂😂 Scared little girl.
Shots fired no ambulance? They love seeing people die.
A bullet hurting my hair would literally shut me down. Dude took so much bullets wtf
Sad reality of these times. I'm sorry to have to say thank you officer
Is it right to call the police to deal with someone with a mental health problem? What do callers expect?
Died like a dog in a gutter, it's clips like these that they should show in high schools to make kids think about what drug abuse really does to you.
Took 3 direct rounds, and kept comimg…took another three to stop him. THAT'S DRUGS FOR YA
At the end he finally complied and stayed on the ground…….
Sorry, too soon.
So cool
Was he unarmed?
All these videos I watch on this channel it’s insane how people just don’t listen. There’s a serious mental problem out there nowadays.
Ok Shots fired, but why no Ambulance
"Murphy's family described him as struggling with drug addiction and attempting to get help." Translation: Violent psychopath who tried to attack a cop and got killed.
The dude don't have a weapon and you can't take him down without shooting him this cop needs some hands on skills.
one less junkie in the streets !…but im worried about the lacking of empty hand skills of today cops
🤗Excellent to plug this fool again!.ðŸ‘ðŸ‘â—👨â€âš–ï¸.
And they want to ban high capacity magazines look at how many rounds it took to stop this guy and what if there's multiple attakers then what.
Was the dude armed tho???
He chose to die. Nobody would even think about getting up again after being shot at. Especially like this, but this situation just goes to show how strong your adrenaline can be when facing life and death. How sad.
Pero porque son asà ,
Déjenlo delinquir Agusto
C’mon man…lol.. amazing how coherent he became after getting shot
And def ain’t walking that last one off
This was a reply, but it is worth me posting for people to see.
We all have to deal with these people. Why are cops special and the only ones allowed to have guns for this situation? If this same thing happened to my daughter she'd not have a gun by law and be a murder victim. Regular citizens deal with the same people in the same places.
