As seen on video, a 14-year-old boy with a pair of knifes menaced other students at Hug High School, and a police officer shot him.
It happened Wednesday in Reno, Nevada. RPD Chief Jason Soto told reporters that it started with a fight between two students, and one of them pulled out the blades. He said the officer gave verbal commands to drop the weapons, but the boy didn’t comply.
