I watched both videos and the knife does not seem to be visible.

I suppose this is a case where one must make a decision: what are we going to believe?

That the police shot someone just for charging at them, two cops shooting one person, when it was clear he was unarmed? (And no threat to them as he didn’t have a weapon and could have been subdued by two trained police officers without deadly force). In other words he was shot in cold blood.

Or...

The police shot this person because he was coming at them with a knife (or charging at them with his hand concealed in his pocket, thus, no way to tell what was in his hand)

Which do you think is the more reasonable scenario?
