it's a really sad situation for all involved. People love to vilify the police, but i'm absolutely sure they were torn on whether to use force against a knife-wielding handicapped guy. And we forget that the instigation for this was assault with a deadly weapon on a dude who's now in a hospital bed. It's like we're failing as a society to contain & care for those who're mentally unstable & disabled. And this goes for Anthony Lowe's family too. Why did they just let him wander the streets in his wheelchair?
"In a separate 911 call, the man, who has been identified only as Ramiro, tells an operator that he had been stabbed in the heart by someone without feet."
I'm sorry for the family of Anthony Lowe.  But he presented a threat of great physical violence if he wasn't stopped. >

Anyone can be a threat to the untrained public. This is why we are supposed to have the police.
