A tense situation unfolded in Brooklyn Thursday evening when a man barricaded himself inside a hospital room with others present, leading to a police-involved shooting. Initial reports indicated the individual had self-inflicted injuries and made threats against those nearby.
Law enforcement responded to the scene at approximately 5:33 p.m., focusing their attention on the eighth floor of the facility. Upon arrival, officers encountered the man brandishing a knife in the doorway.
According to police accounts, repeated verbal commands were given over a three-minute period, urging the man to relinquish the weapon. He consistently disregarded these instructions and repeatedly tried to shut the door.
