I think its safe to say that the police would have done the sensible thing.
Either try to physically calm down this guy or wait for an expert to handle this situation.

Not sure about NYPD, but we don't have "experts" to handle the situation, we are it. I'm not sure what you mean about 'physically calm down'.
If the guy was using the four foot long glass tube to strike at the officers as it is reported, they would have been more then likely justified in using their firearms to negate the threat. As I stated before, it was a no-win situation. |
So the officer was trapped. Could not retreat and thus it was warranted to kill? Tell me this Mr Public servant would you have pulled your sidearm and fired? If so please inform your department of your posts here because I think they need to know your mental state in my opinion.
I could not stop laughing at your efforts to make the contents of tube lights look to be like some kind of super danger when in the case a broken bulb it is recommended to leave and move outside or well vented area. And simply sweep up the remains afterwords.
OMG broken CFL!!! RUN ***** RUN!!!
Edit: Why did I post. Had you done it you would also be charged with manslaughter so whatever just point this topic to your department please.
