On Monday, authorities released footage captured by the body-worn camera of one of the San Diego Police officers involved in a fatal shooting earlier this month.

The video shows the events leading up to the shooting of Christian Engel, 26, at The Broadway Towers apartment complex, located at 1150 East Street, on Monday, Jan. 13.

According to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, around 6:54 p.m. that evening, SDPD officers responded to a 9-1-1 call from someone saying his roommate had swallowed pills and attempted suicide with a knife.

When officers arrived, they led six other people out of the apartment before they confronted the man who was holding a knife. According to authorities, the man approached the officers with the knife and refused to drop the weapon.

Two officers fired their weapons after he continued to move toward them with the knife, SDSO said. The man was later identified as Engel. After the shooting, he was taken to a hospital, where he died from his injuries.
