Police open fire on woman in Crown Heights, Brooklyn apartment

Eyewitness News
CROWN HEIGHTS (WABC) -- Police opened fire on a woman in Brooklyn after she lunged at an officer with a 15-inch knife.

The incident happened on 107 Brooklyn Avenue in Crown Heights just before 3 on Saturday afternoon. Police received a call for help, and when the officer arrived, the emotionally disturbed woman was standing in the apartment with her parents carrying the knife.

Police asked the woman to drop the weapon several times, and when she didn't comply with their orders, they shot her in the torso.
