Buffalo, NY - At 10:55 p.m. on March 5, BPD officers reported to a residence on Minnesota Street in Buffalo in response to a 911 call. At 10:58 p.m., the officers forced entry into a bedroom of the residence and encountered Mr. Butler, who was allegedly holding a knife in each hand.
Mr. Butler allegedly ran toward an officer, holding the knives, and ignored commands to drop them. At least one officer deployed a Taser. Mr. Butler allegedly still held the knives when one officer discharged their service weapon, striking him. Mr. Butler was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

"Mr. Butler was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead." Well, this sentence warms my heart. We should all try it at least once!

What is the cost-benefit justification for tolerating these animals?

"mental health crisis" has been taken care of! Also, he has a LONG history of violent crimes, and one point, tried to light a propane tank
on fire to kill himself.
See, people like this need to be locked up in rubber rooms, but no! We can't do that, it's not fair.
Yeah, let em loose on society and then a police office has to shoot them. Can't find anything but you can bet the family has a gofundme
and a lawyer to sue the city/police officers for shooting a "poor innocent black man having a mental health issue".
