Donald Lee Joseph, wearing a mask, used a hammer to break a window and enter a medical clinic at about 1:50 a.m. A woman who was cleaning inside the clinic barricaded herself in a room and called 911, police said. Police responded to the alleged break-in. Police first confronted Joseph in the hallway, where he was still holding the hammer. Officers initially tried to use a bean-bag gun, but Joseph did not surrender and ran away. As officers followed him, he came out of a room holding a knife and reportedly advanced toward the officers, who shot and killed him.
