The San Diego Police Department released body-camera footage showing an officer shoot a man who allegedly pointed a BB pistol toward officers and told them to shoot him.
NBC 7's Dave Summers spoke to San Carlos neighbors on a street where a 60-year-old man was shot by SDPD in the garage of his home.
Farnham ignored repeated orders to drop the gun and repeatedly said"shoot me." Footage released by SDPD Monday shows Farnham raise the gun in the air. SDPD said Farnham pointed the gun at officers just before Sgt. Pfannenstiel fired three shots from the cover of a police SUV at the bottom of the driveway.
Farnham collapsed onto the floor of his garage next to a parked car. Though gravely wounded, Farnham continued to hold on to the gun while writhing around on the ground. Officers eventually sent in a service dog whose bites forced the suspect to let go of the weapon, which investigators subsequently determined was a BB gun, according to SDPD.Farnham was taken to the hospital and died the next day, SDPD said.
