On January 6, 2026, 21-year-old college lacrosse player Maverick Lyon was home in Albany, Oregon, when his brother Dakota held him at knifepoint amid a drug relapse; their father called 911 with clear clothing descriptions. Lyon grabbed a knife in self-defense, then fled out the back with hands up after dropping it, but police shot him in the chest, back, and face, leaving him hospitalized for a month with major surgeries to remove part of his lung, appendix, and spleen. His federal lawsuit filed in early November 2026 accuses officers and the city of excessive force, citing video evidence, while the district attorney deemed the shooting legally justified as a split-second response to a perceived knife threat; Dakota later pleaded guilty and got over six years in prison.

Once again we see how 5-6 months of police training is not enough. Most of the modern world has YEARS of training ad psychological tests
