Bodycam Footage Of Police Fatally Shooting Man Armed With Knife

The Metropolitan Police Department has released body cam video on Wednesday of a man who was fatally shot by an officer during a reported domestic disturbance on Christmas Day in Northeast Washington. Police say Gerald Hall, 29, refused repeated commands to drop a knife he was carrying. Hall was shot by the officer and died from his injuries at an area hospital. A knife was recovered, according to police. The officers involved in the shooting were placed on routine administrative leave, and authorities say those officers were wearing body cameras which were reviewed as part of an investigation. Hall's family claims the body cam footage authorities allowed them to watch disputes what police say actually occurred.
