Police responded to multiple calls coming from different locations about a man who was acting erratically, police said. Phoenix police arrived at a gas station at the corner of the intersection where a man was reportedly cut by someone carrying a knife. While police were tending to that victim, a clerk came running out of the store at the gas station and told police the man with the knife was back in the store threatening people. Officers went to the store and were confronted by the man near the front door. Officers shot and killed him.
