Tennessee law enforcement officials released video of the woman wielding a medieval-style ax as sheriff’s deputies and public housing officials were serving her an eviction notice.
Body camera footage of Officer James Spray and a patrol car dashboard camera showed the woman, Loronda Sweatt, 40, who was reported to suffer from bipolar disorder, backing the policeman into a vehicle as she brandished the ax at him.
Spray shot Sweatt twice “as she continued advancing and making aggressive movement,” police said in a statement released with the video.
