Police said when an officer confronted Sokhom Hon, the man charged at them. In cellphone video, Hon is heard yelling at police, saying he wanted to die. Police ordered him to put the weapon down but were unsuccessful. An officer reportedly deployed less-lethal shotgun rounds to gain compliance and when that didn't work, officers deployed a Taser, which was also unsuccessful. At that point, the man allegedly charged at the officers and at least one officer shot and killed him.
