Bodycam Video Shows Armed Man Charging Police Ofcr. Before Being Fatally Shot
Fredonia, NY - The Chautauqua County District Attorney gave an update on a police officer-involved shooting in Fredonia on Friday afternoon. During the time of the incident, police were responding to a home on Liberty St. to assist firefighters with a medical-related call. Police say Officer Nathan Scriven, a 15-year veteran of the police department, was attacked by a person with a knife while inside the home. After the officer retreated to the street, he fired at the attacker, police say. That person died at the scene. Officials announced on Friday that the person who was shot was under the influence of both cocaine and LSD at the time. According to officials, police say the shooting victim had been struggling with the loss of a friend, and turned to drugs. The person who allegedly sold him the LSD will be charged. According to police, the last time a Fredonia police officer had to fire a weapon was 15 years prior to the incident. Following the incident, Scriven was placed on administrative leave, but will not face charges related to the shooting. Officials called his actions "lawful and appropriate." |

It is possible to show too much restraint. It looked like the cop really really didn't want to shoot the guy. I'm glad the cops were not hurt. |

He wouldn't have made it outside if I was the cop.

I was using a lot of cocaine and LSD during a period of time in my life, but thankfully never both at the same time. The worst that ever happened to me was carrying on a 4 hour conversation about Pulp Fiction or thinking the taste of a grapefruit was completely remarkable.

That's a lot easier said then done. If a crazy person was charging you with unknown intentions and you had a gun drawn I doubt you would try to just shoot them in the legs.

Dang bro, a little tough on them. Hate to admit it, but if it were me, I would've mag dumped in that dude's face. I think generally, cops practice admirable restraint. IJS
