Hudson, Florida - Pasco County Sheriff's Office released bodycam footage after 79-year-old, James Zambrotto was shot by deputies. This is body worn camera footage from five deputies involved in the deputy-involved shooting at the RaceTrac at US 19 and Little Rd. in Hudson. The footage shows the beginning of the incident, when a deputy was approached by Zambrotto at the gas pumps. It continues to show deputies speaking with Zambrotto to de-escalate the situation, in which Zambrotto stated he would hurt himself and others, while setting up stop sticks to prevent the vehicle’s continued travel. Additionally, it shows Zambrotto being pepper-sprayed while deputies attempt to get Zambrotto to put down the firearm he was holding. It also shows Zambrotto ramming into a patrol car, as well as the moment Zambrotto fired at deputies and deputies returned fire. No deputies were injured as a result of this shooting and Zambrotto remains in a local hospital.

While this is a sad outcome....can we take a moment to realize the durability of Kia automotive window glass. Wow.
designed by NASA I swear
They needed a sledgehammer!!
If only the engines and the rest of the car were as reliable as those windows lol
Exactly what I was thinking, imagine if you were submerged in water and needed to bust that glass to survive!
This is the glass Elon Musk thought was in the truck that he threw the steel ball at!
it breaks my heart when this police officer said to him: "please do not do this to me, I do not want to live with this"
I’ve never heard officers use that before. It seems like a good tactic to use to make that person feel too guilty to do whatever it is that could be harmful. Or at least make them think a little more about it being that it isn’t something that only affects them. Has to strike an empathetic nerve of a person prepared to cause damage when reminded of how their behavior would affect surrounding people.
@@serratoanthony It's not selfish, the guy had already made it clear that he did not care if he died, so the officer had to try to use something else to plead with him. Nobody wants to live with the guilt of killing an elderly veteran with mental problems
The officer doesn't want to live with being forced to shoot a senile old man,this should be easy to understand.
I almost cried, when he said that to the Officer
As someone who carrys everywhere I go and am trying to get into Law Enforcement, he said that because nobody wants to shoot anyone. Most police suicides happen after a shooting. They just wanted to help him, they knew he had mental issues but they still have to defend themselves.
This Pasco officer that initially began dealing with this man is a HERO for his patience and understanding of this situation. He handled it like a PRO!! We need more like him!
"Hero," no. That's an overused term. But I'd agree that his patience and efforts to *deescalate rather than dominate* were professional and ethical. I appreciate that too. But rather than being heroic it's how all police officers should be trained to do their jobs.
Absolutely heartbreaking. These officers did everything they could before resorting to lethal force. My grandpa is going through dementia right now so my heart goes out to James’s loved ones. It is a devastating disease 😞
Sure is, Just take a look at Brandon, Leader of the free world.
A country run by✡️ Isnt free lmao
Do you keep Gramps handcuffed to a bed rail? 😔🙏🏽
They could have just left him alone!… instead they murdered him.
You´re right. It´s heartbreaking.
Maybe I missed the dementia part but if that´s true, I feel sorry for James.
Not so much for his loved ones. They were responsible for having acces to a car and a gun.
I don´t know about the laws in the US but here in Germany it´s difficult to take away someones drivers license and car.
So the “loved ones” stand by and watch patients endanger themselves and others.
When my dad had dementia he would end up driving far away and get lost. I ended up taking the spark plugs out of his car and then he would spend hours trying to fix his car. I felt bad but he was safer....
Bless your heart
Good man!
Awww
You are awesome!!! Had a neighbor with dementia, she wondered off one night heavily wooded lots of farm land too. Her husband surrounded the house in fencing, gated the driveway then put a few cows in there to graze. Kept her safe if she woke up at night and wondered outside. May they both rest in peace...he only made it about a year after her passing then he passed.
Good idea
I just want a relationship that’s as strong as that glass
Won't happen and that's facts
You killed that my dude!!. Lol
@@TheAcceleratorMagazine Apparently there are several car makes and models that have laminated front and or rear door glass instead of tempered glass like most cars have. Tempered glass would shatter with the devices you talked about but laminated glass would act just the way it did in the video.
@@dougpender2009 Well, name em for me please. And for a few thousand other law enforcement, extrication and fire folks. That's important info. Seems that they would non-compliant with Federal safety standards. I have owned a Ferrari, 1974 model, and a 1978 Lamborghini and they may not have had safety glass but I'm thinkin they did. We now have some old Mustangs and Corvettes but I'll have to check em out. Thanks for reading and taking time to update me. Really.
@@TheAcceleratorMagazine you're wrong, what you see in this video is laminated glass (like in windshields), not tempered glass that shatters. If it were tempered glass, you could break it with your fist with ease (just hit it hard in any corner). It would also shatter on first contact with a metal stick like what the officer was using.
I couldn't watch the entire video, knowing what was about to happen. I feel so sad for the cop, a truly good man who recognized what was happening in real time. And likewise for James, 80 years-old and a veteran. This is a true example of a tragedy. James clearly had dementia characterized here by paranoia. The poor man didn't ask for dementia to happen to him.
Let me share my story. I will make it as short as possible. First of all, this NEVER should've happened the way it did. This scenario happened with my Dad. Big difference? I live in Canada. I was able to talk with the Police & explain my Dad's mental state. My Dad threatened to kill a Judge & his Family Doctor. His Doctor would NOT re-fill his, you're gonna love this one...his anti-psychotic medication! Yup, you read that right! My Dad had stopped taking Paxil (deadly side effects when you stop taking them suddenly, duh?!) which led to his psychotic episode. The Judge he wanted to kill was in charge of his case whereby her was being sued for 2 million dollars by a man that he hit with his car by accident. All of this became too much for my Dad & he literally lost his mind, like this poor man.
Thankfully the Swat, ETF, ATF & local Police Dept., listened to me so my Dad is still alive today, 84 yrs old. I know for sure that they would've shot & killed my Dad if I wasn't there to explain. My heart breaks for this man because he reminds me so much of how my Dad's behavior was. My Dad is an avid Hunter & Trap shooter (most people know skeet shooting but my Dad & I shot Trap) I traveled all across the USA going to Tournaments with the ATA (Amateur Trapshooting Association) & my Dad holds the Title of High Canadian Shooter with the ATA. After my Dad was arrested he was Hospitalized, they seized all his Firearms, Revoked his Firearms License & now we go fishing lol no more hunting for Dad.
n my humble opinion, this was 100% avoidable if only the Police Officers had the proper training in dealing with an elderly man clearly in the midst of a mental health crisis. In Canada, de-escalation & defusing are common when dealing with a mental health crisis, age & when a Firearm is involved. I only watched until 22:32 because I, like you, wasn't able to watch an elderly man in crisis or psychosis die.
Truly heartbreaking, gut wrenching & impossible for me to fathom. Frankly, I don't see the purpose/necessity in showing him being shot. What purpose does it serve? We all know from TV & Movies what it looks like when a person gets shot. My heart goes out to the Police Officer, I'm certain he'll be affected for the rest of his Career & will suffer with PTSD. An utter Tragedy IS unfortunately the ONLY word that BEST describes what happened that night. Indeed, poor James didn't have a clue what was going on nor could he comprehend the magnitude of what was about to happen. He didn't possess the mental faculties to be able to make a clear & precise decision. God, I wish I could go back in time & save James from this, he deserved better that being shot by Police & Dementia was the REAL KILLER that took James' life that night. RIP James & I'm so sorry the system failed you.
@@daphnesuarez5924 Thank you for taking the time to share your story. I read every word.
@@voiceofreason9238 Thank you, much appreciated.
@@voiceofreason9238 yeah I raed the whole thing too becaxuse I'm stoned and just ate my Gluttony Day lunch.
My grandma thought my mom was gonna shoot her in the last weeks of her life. She went a little nuts. My mom had no gun. But hell she was 90. She was sharp uo until the end. The last time I rode with her drivig she was 85?. Scary, but she wouldn't let me drive her in her xar. Independent. City traffic, born, raised, lived, world traveled from, and died in San Francisco. But..
It was time for her to not be in traffic.
The problem with new cars a child can start one and make it go. Don't even shift anymore. OPERATORS can be old too, driving on instinct. DRIVERS are engaged with the road and their car. The only 'drivers' I see in videos are running from the cops. Drunks can "operate" a vehicle, they don't drive too well. The difference between operating and driving is like a super tanker vs a kayak.
I've said it many times, Paxil? SSRIs? Heintz 57 pharmacopia plus 'Gain of Function" is making people go nuts a little at a time. It wasn't anything like this when I was young.
@@TheIncense so go see your optomitrist..
This poor man is convinced someone is trying to get him…even these officers. So much respect to these officers doing everything they can think of to de-escalate the situation. The old guy just cannot think clearly at this point.
I have a guy like that walking down the street,talking to himself and "they're watching me' yah Meth paranoia, but he's younger than I am. Just mentally lost.
deescalate? he only pulled the gun when they started bashing in the confused old mans windows??

Welcome to Florida!
These people exist by the thousands out there.
Problem is some people do live alone, no family or are estranged. They slowly lose their cognitive capacities, prefrontal cortext degrades, reasoning is out of the window, same with impulse control and emotions.
*Exactly*
Just think if he was rich and privileged enough, he wouldn’t need a firearm or to be driving a car with his elderly dementia...he could be Joe Biden?
Are you telling me if it was your family member you would be willing to watch them 24/7 or put them in mental institution or pay for nursing home for them to die from covid? My dad is 74 with bi-polar and dementia and is in this situation and we have to watch him 24/7. It isn't something we can sustain. Gonna have to hire a daycare worker full time for him which I can't afford. Just wait until your parents are old and you have to take care of them. He stole keys the other day and snuck out for a drive. We were all out looking for him panicking.
The first officer tried so hard to deescalate the situation-even asked him to go inside and get coffee. Props to him for his effort.
And the Sheriff said to even go home
Everyone gets spike strips, and windows smashed, but go home. Okay ..okay sure.

Windows: I gotchu old timer...

Windows: Oh, nvm.
Right? Like I was waiting just to see the window being shot out instead 🤣
Put the cyber truck windows to shame
Isn’t that from Beetlejuice? Lol
You can really hear the plea in the cops voice. That "Please" is so genuine. Not want he wanted. Man... thats rough.
My mom has dementia, knows she cannot drive why the family did not seize all vehicles from him is beyond me. You need to make sure your loved one is safe. The sad thing is James 2 minutes later will have no recollection of this event 😢
My dad is a Vietnam vet and he started talking like this. 'people bugging his phones' ' people following him' But it wasn't dementia. He was having a series of mini-strokes that affected his cognitive ability.
He's not wrong. Big Tech bugs smartphones. Any time you drive a car there is a chance someone will eventually be following you.
@@dublj57 are you stupid. selling your data to advertising companies does not mean someone will follow you around when you drive.

6:30 "why don't we get a coffee? Let's go inside and get a coffee." The greatest line I've ever heard in a deescalation effort. The officer really really did his best to make things better for this man and I praise him for that.
And then he had to shoot him just minutes later. What the police go through man…
"you keep saying that thing over & over again"
Why? It didn't work. Failure is not worthy of praise.
@@itstimetorise Jesus Christ could you be any more negative
And then you blasted his head off his shoulders HAHAHAHA
I was already bawling my eyes out for that officer, he was so sincere that he absolutely did not want to shoot him. They all understood he was having mental issues and all they wanted was to help him. They were all so genuinely concerned about him. That officer begged him not to make him do it. I hope they all take the help they are offered to deal with this incident. It was not their fault at all, there was nothing they could have done different. The poor man was delusional and afraid, he believed everyone was trying to hurt him. My condolences to his family and friends. And if I could do anything for the officers, I would hug them long and hard, I would sit there in the dark place they stuff their pain, as long as it took. I am so so sorry that this situation came to this, I know it's not what you signed up for. It's not what you were called to do. The sweet old man didnt know what he was doing, but in the end, he left you no other choice. Talk to someone you trust, say how you feel, scream, swing a bat at something breakable, release everything you think you need to bury inside. It's the only way you can come out of this with your own mental health. Again, Im so sorry. But I also thank you for choosing this career, and thank you for making sure you go home tonight to your family. Love you guys and please work your way thru this. And dont let this change you badly, when the next guy needs help, help him, please. We cant save everyone, but maybe we can save someone. Be there for that person.
Rest in peace now sir, you are safe. You are with loved ones in heaven and everything is clear again. I know you hold no anger for these officers. Help them understand that too.

This is so sad for everyone involved. A true tragedy.
Them windows strong af
Right? TF kinda glass is that? Usually side windows explode when struck. Must have some type of film or something
HAND BUILT KOREAN WINDOW MUCH MORE STRONG THAN MERICAN WINDOW
The glass is laminated like the windshield, they're usually put on fancier cars. It's three layers with a thin plastic membrane in the middle. Most cars have tempered glass, that's the kind that explodes when broken.
That's modern Korean quality for ya.
Is it a good thing? I thought the side windows were purposely easier to destroy incase you need to quickly escape or get in if the car was in an accident.
Elon musk needs to get in contact with whomever makes those windows
Seriously! Holy shit I'm surprised the bullet went through 😂🤣
I just was about to say something about the windows. Pretty tough.
@@eaglevision993 Its not the glass its the laminate in the middle, tough as hell!
I'm guessing that's so you dont get ejected theough the windows in an accident. I seen another video with a new Jeep Wrangler and they literally could not break the windows out of it. With multiple officers hitting them. They use to have what they call a window punch that would shatter the entire window when pressing against it. I dont know if they still work or dont anymore
Feel sorry for the poor sod who gets in a wreck, gets their doors jammed shut and the car's burning... because they can't break the windows to get out.
Not sure if the rear glass has the laminate or not?
Those poor officers. They literally tried everything possible and definitely waited longer than most probably would have in the same situation.
Just like the Officer said please don't make me do this, please don't make me live with this. That's a hard hard day at the office.
My wife and I took care of her mother for many years. My mother-in-law had dementia and often talked similar to how James did. When she was really suffering from it, it didn't matter what you said or did, you couldn't get her to see reality. It is indeed a terrible disease. I can't say for sure that James has dementia but the way he acted was a lot like my mother-in-law did.
Of coarse he had dementia but for whatever reason is what needs to be debated. Not if. We all see people who act like their brains aren't working but this is one of the more extreme cases.
i don't know about the shooting...wasn't really focused on that. I want to know about those windows. I need some like that.

Heartbreaking. My mom had dementia and screamed every time she though I was anywhere near. I lost the last two years of her life because of dementia. She passed 7/31/22 still believing I was trying to steal from her. Dementia is horrible especially when the sufferer was your best friend for 57 years 😢💜
I'm sorry. My dad had Alzheimer's and didn't know who I was. His only daughter. He died in confusion as he had no idea what was going on. He thought everyone else was crazy. My mom was my beet friend and roommate for most of my life. I found her, not alive, in her bed after I went out to pick up her prescription meds. I know your pain and again, I'm sorry. 💔

My dad too thought we where stealing from him. He didn't recognize my mom who was also confused at the time but not entirely with dementia. When my mom died in 2019 he completely lost it. He found himself alone in his room not knowing where she was and it was heartbreaking to explain him almost every day that she had passed. Shortly after he tripped at night while going to the bathroom and broke his hip. The time of the hospital was terrible, he would yell calling for his momma. Back home she needed constant attention and we came to the conclusion that we couldn't provide it so after two long months we decided to put him into a hospice. He lasted two days in there. And passed while sleeping. I miss them so much.

Family should have put him in a home the second he started showing symptoms of dementia more than they could handle on a day to day basis.
lol it aint mental health. its a culture problem in america. u dont see other country with this bullshit
For this type of situations it would be a good thing if police department have EMP guns, so they can neutralize the car. If someone is confused, it doesn't help if you surround him with a dozen cops. Too much movement. With the car out of the picture, you only have to 'deal' with the gun. Put a patrol car in front of the car and stay near the backdoors as that is a relative safe positions for the officers..

It is a horrible illness that destroys a person. one lady killed her husband with a brick, when she came into our custody she was a mean woman ready to fight anyone over anything. over the course of 6 months the dementia reduced her to a little old grandma that referred to the deputies as her grandkids. watching her decline and become a totally different person was a sobering experience. another inmate we had was an old man on probation, his bond was $500 but his family never came to get him. when he came in he was a supper nice guy but you could tell something was off. after a few months he no longer knew where he was or why he was there. then he started fighting everyone because they wouldn't let him meet his friend.
I feel for these officers they did what they had to do but killing a man who had no idea where he was or what was going on is going to be a weight on their soul for the rest of their lives and I wish them the best. in a sad kind of way it was a mercy for both the man and the family.
It absolutely broke my heart when this officer said man please don’t do this to me and make me live with this. What a wonderful office patient tried everything he could tried to talk to him. This officer if it helps him you did everything you could. If it means anything. We need good officers like this.
It's not a volunteer job

bro got SOOOO many chances at living peacefully.
My sympathy to the officers for having to perform such duty. You didn’t let him hurt anyone and I am sure in his right mind he would be glade you stopped him before he hurt anyone. RIP
Is he dead now?
Yeah, he died in hospital like 2 days after being shot. @@Kilbot192
Yes died a few days later
Poor old man. He has dementia. My dad died from it. Before he died, he would often get out of the house in the middle of the night- and would frequently become hostile and verbally abusive with the police. I tip my hat to all the cops who dealt with him. The patience of saints and professionals. Each and every one of them that ever encountered him.
It sounds to me like more than dementia. Sounds like dementia as well as some other psychotic disorder.
Or maybe just my experience with dementia patients hasn't had as much paranoia and psychosis as this example.
Quit making excuses for thug criminals. You’re part of the problem. Pull a gun, you get to die.. I don’t care if you’re Dementia ridden, or Queen fucking Elizabeth.
@@crazyrobots6565 I've seen dementia and Alzheimer's patients that had episodes like this!😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏
Yeah when your operating system is gone, there isnt much anyone can do sadly.
What qualifies you to make that diagnosis?
Wow the police had immense patience, I can’t even imagine having to deal with a situation like this. Much respect 🙌
Not all are like that
@@brandonhardin2609 Ofc. No group of people are all exactly the same, I was just talking about the police in this video that I witnessed having great patience. I send my full and upmost respect towards them.
😭😭😭😭😭😭
if he was black it would have been way worse
@@jayrico6226 yea because black people act dumb and think they know everything and thats why they get shot. Its always Black lives matter even when the black people shoot first right? smh
This hurts to watch, God bless these gentlemen.✌️❤️🐶
What kind of window does he have??? Seems very strong.
Heard about this on my local Fox 13 RUclips channel. The people saying the police used too much force was laughable.
Not enough force in my opinion.
William Napier yeah they shouldve dropped a nuke there
They gave him 20 minutes to listen to their orders and he had a gun. 150% justified
@@HiAnthonyA he also has dementia and isn’t coherent. He probably didn’t even know where the fuck he was.
@@MrDino-vg1uw That doesn’t matter, mental illness is not a pass to harm others . When he made himself a danger to others he decided his fate to be put down.
Those are the two strongest windows on the face of the Earth...

Thank you all for your services
I think the old man knew what he had going on mentally, he may have recognized that he had dementia and just wanted to check out. Very sad situation for all involved.

My father had dementia and pulled a gun on his wife. He thought someone was cheating with her. I never got to say goodbye. He died 6 months later. It's sad to see someone lose their mind
Hey, Rest In Peace both of em. Sorry for that loss.
Sorry for your loss! But... why did he still have a gun? No one with such an illness should be able to grab a gun.
@@horsts5986 well at the time he was perfectly fine. It's like it hit him all at once. He was talking about things that had happened 40 yrs ago at that time. He didn't even know who I was when I seen him the very next day
@@EastTennKats same thing happened to my grandparents.... Grandpa was totally fine until the last two weeks, started talking really crazy, and thought his wife was cheating on him, and would call her the wrong name. Shot her in the back of the head, then walked outside and shot himself
I hid the firing pins and keys to the locks for my father’s weapons when I realized that he was suffering from dementia. The VA doctors and social workers were slow to diagnose him. But I wasn’t trying to see him hurt himself, myself or anyone else.
I want that glass in my next car, wonder if it's an option?
Also breaks my heart to see these cops spending 30 seconds on trying to break a window out when they could of just went through the back window
It breaks my heart. You can hear in the cops voice, the pleading, how sad to beg someone to not make them make you shoot them. He gave that man every opportunity. I hope he knows that.
I hope everyone involved gets the counselling, time off they need. Tragic situation.
Let him hit the stupid pump, and when it fails to "blow up" like he thought, you can pull him out of the car.
how could he know it, hes literally deep dementia and probably liquered up, no idea whats going on.
Yeah. Then the good cops get a bad rap from the crooked ones
Great job officers ...my heart goes out to all of you 😞 ....including that poor man ..he seemed so so sad 😞😞
The Leo litterally told this guy to just "go home", you dont see that often. Mad props to this officer for trying his best.
Shut off the master gas valves, then let him ram the stupid pump. You can pull him out of the car after he's done, and charge him with whatever.
- PS - Pumps don't "blow up" when you hit them. That only happens in Hollywood movies. They have auto shut off valves that stop any gas flow if they get hit.
Yelling somebody pepper him while you bash in his window is not trying your best unless you want the guy dead
Cop needs training
@@DEVILFISH1122 he sat there talking to the man for a long ass time that’s what he means by he did his best he tried to calm the man down and get him to think straight officers don’t wake up in the morning thinking I wanna kill someone today like others may think!🤡
@@coltenporter680 I don’t know if you’ve ever had to deal with somebody in the middle of a mental episode be it schizophrenia, dementia maybe PTSD but it really takes some effort and training to develop trust and standing a few feet away with a gun pointed at his head begging the fellow not to make him shoot him is not it
The good intentions of the cop were for not
how in the world a thief have better tools to break car windows?
Those windows are amazing holy smokes.
This is so sad man. I feel so bad for the officer he tried so damn hard to make this easy. You sir are an amazing officer and we need more like you.
Most officers are like this.
You could hear it in his voice! That got me ☹️
The overwhelming percentage of cops are like this.....just gotta turn off that cnn boss
Dementia is an awful, awful disease. This is the true definition of a tragedy 😢 Respect to the officers for showing unbelievable patience ❤
True, 100% true.....
Dementia is not treated with bullets.
I often wonder if, however bad the situation may seem, it was actually a mercy killing for the old man so he could finally be in peace
And by often I mean for similar situations
The cops were idiots. You start beating someone's windows in, it isn't going to deescalate the situation.
I don't think the best of doctors can make a diagnosis watching RUclips videos.
One lady I took care of refused to give up driving . She got into her car and wouldn't leave , it took me an hr to get her out and then she walked down the street and I walked with her. Very difficult
Why do they not call someone in protective services or fire dept or ambulance.. why????
Those were the strongest windows I've seen on a car.

@@rude_boy8610 you got that down. Next we need a model...then the VIN. Don't get lazy on me now, blue
I tried breaking my own car window with an aluminum bat and couldn't do it. I almost broke my wrist
@@dabarawahjacob7970 it’s tempered glass, it’s designed not to break from blunt force. You’d have more luck with a hammer and a screwdriver to punch a hole near the edge.
I do auto glass. It’s actually laminated glass like your windshield. Tempered glass is designed to break into tiny chunks. A lot of newer models are coming with the front door glasses laminated these days. The idea it to keep you from injecting from the vehicle during a crash. The back glass, and back door glasses are almost always tempered, to provide an exit in the case vehicle submerges.
Officer was trying his best, he didn't want to shoot old man, he said he will not live like this if shoot him. Life is too harsh.

At 0:42 when someone tells you in a very calm, matter-of-fact tone that they already pissed their pants and continues on the conversation like nothing of importance is going on, you already know, things are only going to go downhill from there.

@@population-_-420 Why did you say that? If you understood how ignorant that made you look, you wouldn’t have said that.
If that’s your best takeaway from that video, it’s apparent, you didn’t watch it. Those officers gave that guy respect and compassion as tried reasoning with him trying to let him know his life was worth it.

@@rico200168 they do but they are mostly running away and then a cop says stop or you will be shot and they keep running they get shot and end up dying. All they have to do is stop when the cop tells them to stop.
@mystery man and black people don’t do what cops say.
"come inside and let's get a coffee" This cop was super cool
He even offered to buy the coffee
Yeah, when a camera is present.
It's true, you can tell that the police really wanted to solve things, what a shame that the man's mental problems did not allow everything to continue well. I think they acted well.. greetings from Argentina.
@@PabloCruise1 If you don't break the what do you have to worry about?
Lol it's just a tactic to get them out of the car and be able to get control of him if needed. When someone is a suspect of any type of probable cause, it's the officer's 1st step in their head to remove them from a vehicle because it can become a few ton weapon at the blink of an eye...
😢 oh my, poor guy im bawling rn he clearly needed help rip 🙏
could the window 'breaking' have done any less good, jesus, basically created a shield for the guy
I feel so bad for the officer and the old man. Life just sucks sometimes.
he was dumb
@@chadjamian Pretty stupid comment to be fair, you don't know that the guy doesn't have some kind of illness or anything. Remember in the video he said about the people and the voices? all possible signs of hallucinations, so he could have dementia or anything, and I'm speaking from experience of knowing people with dementia and have suffered with hallucinations themselves... I hope neither you or any of your loved ones ever go through it
It's hell getting old. All you think about is dying.
Dude he can have his voices without involving the conscience, lives, and families of others. He can drive a car to this place and do what he did - he has enough cognition to not destroy the worlds of others. Got plenty of family and friends who go/went through this at all ages and they sure didn’t do this. This ain’t it brah.
@@TheGuiltyJoker Where do the police stop when you start imagining reasons for the suspect's behaviour, though? You can't say _"He might have some kind of illness"_ when he's poised to put a bullet in your face. The police handled this as patiently and professionally as they could.
This dude never stopped talking and I have NO idea what the hell he wants or what his problem is!
He clearly said "Addahada adadahhh adahhhh adah"
He used alot of words to say nothing.
He’s a drunk Vietnam vet clearly with some form of PTSD
Michael Bonner he didnt know himself, that's what dementia does.
At some point, their talk with him was indeed fruitless and they should have just blocked him in much better.
