How the interaction unfolded
In bodycam and surveillance video of the incident edited and released by the NYPD Friday, a man, identified by police as Mickles, is seen entering a subway train car that pulls into the station during the confrontation in an apparent attempt to evade police.

After a brief pursuit along the subway platform, Mickles finds himself cornered, flanked by two officers. He charges, then abruptly halts, and then video shows the officers discharging their weapons multiple times in his direction, causing Mickles to collapse into the subway car.

Police say officers only fired their weapons after Mickles charged at them.

“Officers attempted to de-escalate the situation by asking the suspect to drop the knife over 30 times and deployed tasers three times, all without success,” NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry said in a post on social media.

Two bystanders and an officer were also struck by gunfire in the incident, according to police, who said one of those bystanders was hit by a stray bullet in the head and was still in critical condition as of Friday, the New York Times reported.

Mickles was arrested and charged with aggravated assault on a police officer with a deadly weapon, among other charges. He was arraigned Friday from his hospital bed in Kings County, according to CNN affiliate WABC, and pleaded not guilty.

CNN has reached out to an attorney representing Mickles for comment.
