On Monday, police in Fairfax County, Virginia released the body camera footage from an incident last month during which an officer shot and killed a woman after she slashed the officer multiple times with a knife.
The Sept 16 footage from police in Reston, VA shows crisis intervention-trained officer Peter Liu responding to 33-year-old Sydney Wilson’s apartment on Sunrise Valley Drive after her doctor raised concerns about her mental health. Wilson is a former NAACP activist and played college basketball for Georgetown University.
When Liu arrived, Wilson, a former NAACP activist, opened the door but shut it after a short interaction. Liu was then left in the hallway for almost 10 minutes.
Graphic.
