Place of the incident:

St. Louis, St. Louis, MO
7700 Harlan Avenue

Joshua Lanflisi called 911 just after 6:30 a.m., drawing officers to the home on Harlan. He did not say why he was calling, and he did not answer calls back from dispatchers. When officers arrived, Lanflisi initially refused to answer the door, then stepped onto the porch holding a handgun in one hand and a sword in the other. He ignored commands to drop the weapons, and an officer shot and killed him.
