After allegedly crashing into two police cars, he brandished a hunting knife at the deputies while demanding they shoot him.
A 57-year-old Florida man named Joseph O'Connor allegedly crashed into two police cars before yelling,"Just shoot me" to police officers.
The deputy who responded to the call tried to talk to O'Connor, but O'Connor allegedly fled, WTVT reported. The deputy then pursued the suspect by car. They tried pulling O'Connor's vehicle over by using their siren and patrol lights. But when the officer began walking towards his car, he reportedly sped off.
Instead, the deputy called in additional patrol cars as well as a helicopter. Eventually, two patrol cars positioned themselves in front of and behind O'Connor's vehicle to prevent his driving off. In response, O'Connor allegedly rammed his vehicle into the car in front of him. He then allegedly reversed his vehicle and hit the patrol car behind him.
