Rochester Police Bodycam Footage: Officer Shoots Armed Suspect During Assault

On August 15, a Rochester police officer responded to an active shooting scene on Weyl Street and encountered 48-year-old Lavar McKnight pinning and pistol-whipping another man in a backyard. After ordering McKnight to show his hands and receiving no compliance, the officer fired a single shot, striking McKnight in the stomach. Both McKnight, who was charged with criminal possession of a weapon and criminal use of a firearm, and the other man were treated for non-life-threatening injuries at the University of Rochester Medical Center and have since been released.
