In the video, officers yell repeatedly at Perez to put the knife down, before firing bean bags at him. Perez holds up a metal chair as a shield, then moves back toward Tollison, who had been standing against a wall with her walker during the violent confrontation. Perez wraps his arms around Tollison and presses the knife against her throat with both hands. The officers began shooting and both Perez and Tollison fell to the ground. A blood-covered knife was found near Perez’s body.
