Los Angeles, California — On April 23rd, 2021 around 2:25 a.m., LAPD North Hollywood Division officers responded to a radio call of an Assault with a Deadly Weapon suspect armed with a knife at an apartment complex in the 5200 block of Whitsett Avenue. When the officers arrived, they encountered an adult man in the open-air walkway of the complex. He was holding the handle of a knife that appeared to be stuck in his neck. He told the officers he was suicidal and threatened to push the knife further into his neck. While officers continued to talk to the man, additional officers were requested, and an ambulance was requested to their location to be ready to treat him.

Officers continued to ask the man to release his grip on the handle of the knife, so he could receive medical treatment. After continued unsuccessful efforts to have the man release his grip on the knife handle, a TASER was used. The man charged in the direction of the officers with a knife and a 40mm less lethal round was discharged and an OIS occurred. The man was struck by gunfire and fell to the ground. He was transported to a local hospital where he received medical treatment and is expected to survive. No additional community members or officers were injured during the incident. Two large bloody kitchen knives were recovered and booked as evidence.

  1. did you hear him….he said " many ppl been doing this sh** i dont give a F*** shoot me " 🤦🏽‍♀️ idioto…if they all ate sh*** would you do that too??

  2. That guy definitely didn’t want to live. It suck that that involved the officers that have to live with this. True shame sorry for you having to go through this.

  3. Bad day eh??? This man fell/jumped from 2nd floor, stabbed himself with a knife, got tazed, bean-bagged AND shot. After jail, he'll have a pretty fat bill to pay for all of it too… GG Edwin

  4. 35 cents for the bullet. Use three that's a 1.05. Bill the family. Easy peasy.
    Dead criminals don't hurt good, law-biding citizens.

  5. What going when cops when you going policia when you going out this Los Angeles Police department going when knife 🔪 when you going when you policia when you going out this LAPD want cops this going when aqui you want this going when you Los Angeles Police department going when you going out this when you going April 24, 2021 you going out of police officers when you going

  6. If someone is wearing ANYTHING more than a Speedo, FORGET THE TASER!!!!
    All that did was incite him to stop lead.

  7. Ok, what part of "just put the knife down" is not understandable? Stupid is as stupid does….
    And of course it's always the cops fault.

  8.

  9. Another comment section filled with jokes. I hope police activity shuts down because the 'educational and informational' crowd got what they came for a long time ago

  10. Criminals wear hoodies even in July and August because they know that tazer's will not penetrate them, thats why today tazers fail about 80% of the time.

  11. If we're all going to be honest here, Vasquez was having a bad day. While he was violent against himself, he was not presenting a threat to the officers until they tazed him.

    He seems to have contaminated thinking.

    I often wonder about the use of tranquilizer darts.

  12. In the neighborhood Edwin was affectionately called “Edwin the Opposite”. Anything you ask, he does the opposite

  13. Back in the day, people at least had the balls to just kill themselves instead of making a cop do it and suffer the nightmares for the rest of his life that come of it.
