A man who crashed a car into the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco was armed with a crossbow and slashed at officers with a knife, police say.
A man who crashed a car at the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco earlier this month had a crossbow and arrows and slashed a knife at officers before a police sergeant killed him, police said Thursday, offering the first official details of the attack. San Francisco police showed body-camera video from the officers who responded to the Oct. 9 attack on the consulate, which is in a residential neighborhood in the city.
Several people called 911, including one person who said the suspect had a gun, which dispatchers relayed to officers sent to the scene, though Yang did not have a gun, police said. “If we believe that we have an active attacker event, we will do everything possible to stop that threat immediately so we don’t have a loss of life,” he said. The crash was condemned by the Chinese government, which called it “a violent attack,” and by the White House.
