Officers were called to a home in the 1000 block of Glen Court around 12:45 p.m. on Aug. 24, for reports that a man had smashed a neighbor's window and set a wooden fence on fire. Callers also told police the man had poured gasoline on the neighbor's house, and was trying to start up a chainsaw.

Body camera footage released on Friday shows that the first officer who arrived on the scene spotted the burning fence and retrieved a fire extinguisher from his squad car to put out the flames, when a man began approaching him on the driveway.

The officer can be seen dropping the fire extinguisher and shouting "drop the knife" as the man continues walking towards him, and raising his right hand above his head, grasping a knife. Moments later, the officer fires five shots, and the man drops to the ground.

Waukegan police said the man, 26-year-old Jesus Angel Manjarrez, was armed with a knife and a hammer. He also had a gasoline can taped to his chest, police have said.
