Chase suspect shot, killed by Lake Jackson police officers

Lake Jackson police officers shot and killed a man near Liverpool after they said he charged at them with a knife following a chase and crash.

A bystander shot video of the end of the chase, the crash and the shooting.

The whole thing started around 10 a.m. Thursday when LJPD got a call about a man inside a dumpster at O.M. Robert's Elementary School. Before officers arrived, they said the guy stole a truck and took off.

During the chase through Brazoria County, police said the guy rammed a stolen truck into two vehicles and tried to run over an officer.

You would think that after 18 warning shots he would have given up.

Taking the lenient DAs and judges out of the equation. Nice.

Nothing of value was lost in this incident....

Non compliance comes with a price and always will. When you are stupid enough to attack cops the price goes up. Thank you officers.

Im not much of a gambler, but I would go all in on "he wont be doing that again"

[hollybenson]

Why are people standing recording. Dumb af. People are way too much thinking they should be in other peoples’ business. If this dude started firing she’d be right in the line.

“Bones. Can you save him?” “Damn it Jim. Im a physician, not a magician”.

Imagine how the last LEO felt getting there too late to shoot at the suspect. No, I don't feel sorry for the suspect.

He didn't want to wear the fine silver wrist jewelry the Cops had for him. Cops made sure he wouldnt be wearing them.
