Officers were briefed about the escalating situation inside the business while en route to the scene. After arriving, they first attempted to subdue the man with non-lethal force, including an electronic control device and a baton, according to Johnson. When those measures failed and the knife-wielding subject still would not comply with police orders, one of the officers opened fire, Johnson said.
