“Almost immediately he was uncooperative and using the vehicle as a barrier between him and officers. After a little bit of discussion with the subject, he walked to the passenger side of the vehicle and retrieved an aluminum baseball bat,” Metro Captain Kurt McKenzie said during a news briefing.

McKenzie said the man turned toward officers with the bat and officers simultaneously used a taser device in an attempt to stop him but it was ineffective.

“Officers did a second, and a third deployment of an ECD (Electric Control Device). Simultaneously an officer discharged his ******* striking the subject,” McKenzie said.

The man ***** at the scene. No officers were injured. Road closures continue in the area.

This is the 9th officer-involved ********* of 2024. Per LVMPD policy, the identity of the officer involved will be released after 48 hours.
