“Put your goddamn hands up. Don’t be reaching for nothing,” one officer early in the confrontation. However, Warner refuses to obey commands, leading another officer to deploy her Taser.

Footage shows the officer deploy her Taser, which immediately drops Warner. But the suspect somehow manages to rise. He then charges the officer, where police say he repeatedly stabbed the officer in her ballistic vest, according to the COPA report.

That’s when two officers unload on the suspect. Footage shows multiple shots ring out within inches of the female officer. Warner finally falls to the ground, seemingly lifeless. Officials later pronounced Warner dead at the scene. The Chicago Sun Times reported that the officers fired “around 15 shots” from start to finish.
