Glendale Police Officer Joshua Hilling encountered the man walking down busy Interstate 75 in Ohio. The man said he didn’t have identification — just a book bag with dirty clothes in it.
“I’m going to pat you down for officer safety,” Hilling told Javier Pablo Aleman before putting the man against the back of the police car.
Body camera footage shows what happened next: Aleman pulled out a knife and lunged toward Hilling, shouting, “I’m going to kill you!”
The officer shot Aleman once in the abdomen.
Aleman got back up and shouted “kill me!” more than 40 times at the officer, who exhorted Aleman to drop the knife and get down.
