NYPD bodycam video shows knife wielding man lunging towards police, who fatally shot him inside 7-11
Newly-released body cam video of a police-involved shooting in the Bronx shows a man armed with a knife lunging toward a police officer who fatally shot him in the aisle of a 7-Eleven convenience store in September.
The incident Sept. 9 unfolded as a clerk at the Throgs Neck store walked next door to the 45th Precinct station house to complain about a suspicious man removing products from behind the store’s counter.
Two officers accompanied the woman on foot back to the store, at East Tremont Ave. and Barkley Ave.
There, the officers confronted Bronx resident Mamady Cisse, 22, who was wearing a hoodie and stood near a cooler with drinks and a Slurpee machine.
“Where are you going?” one of the cops said as Cisse walked toward him. “Where are you going? Take your hands out of your pockets.”
Cisse did not comply. Instead, he took a drag on a cigarette, and put it on a counter near the store’s coffee machines.
