But he must've been posing as a threat to others?? since just having a pocket knive doesn't warrant the police shooting him

According to “the province” website, he was breaking into cars, and made a move toward one of the officers with a knife. If that’s true, totally different story.

Cops seem to get shit on here in Van no matter what.

If I was cop and some dude started at me with a knife, damn right he’s getting dropped. We have WAY too many criminals running the streets here. I’m pretty quick to say the cops screw up lots, but on this one I’m siding with the officers. On one side of things people are screaming because we have all these shootings and criminals running around, but when the cops get tough with them people yell at the cops for excessive force.

If the guy wasn’t breaking the law, he wouldn’t have gotten shot. 1 less dip shit fucking up peoples rides and running around with a knife.

The guy had a exacto knife. The two cops believed that he was the one breaking into cars. They should use a baton or something or shoot his leg to arrest him, not kill him..

Why should they risk themselves like that?

Seems like a taser would have been appropriate though.
