Mentally Unstable Attacker with a Knife

In this First Person Defender scenario, a man walks out of a bathroom and straight into a dangerous situation: a visibly unstable individual ranting, escalating, and then pulling a knife in a crowded store. The setup is chaotic, loud, and unpredictable. The question is: what do you do when no one else is acting?

This episode highlights the critical importance of identifying your danger cue, utilizing space to your advantage, and preparing for fast and imperfect situations. Sometimes your only option is to step in. But how and when you do it could make the difference between survival and tragedy.

First Person Defender Season 14 is brought to you by CCW Safe, Colt, Crimson Trace, HK-USA, Ruger, and Umarex/T4E.
