SAN FRANCISCO — Surveillance video captured a shocking daylight stabbing after a man walked up behind a victim and suddenly drove a knife into his back.

The attack happened Thursday afternoon around 1:00 p.m. at the intersection of Stockton and Sacramento streets in the city’s Chinatown district.

Footage shows a man in a hooded sweatshirt walking slowly down the sidewalk before pulling out a knife and stabbing another man who was standing near the crosswalk.

After the attack, the suspect calmly walked away, crossing the street before disappearing from the camera’s view.

The victim is seen turning around and clutching his lower back before collapsing onto the sidewalk. He briefly tries to get up before eventually lying face down on the ground.

Several bystanders walk past the injured man before one person nearby appears to call for help.

Police responded to the scene and found the victim suffering from a stab wound. Paramedics transported him to a hospital with life-threatening injuries.

During a search of the area, officers located a man matching the suspect’s description near the 600 block of Powell Street. He was detained without incident and placed under arrest.

Authorities have not released the suspect’s name or possible charges. The motive behind the stabbing remains under investigation.

BALTIMORE COUNTY, Maryland — Newly released body camera footage is raising questions about a deadly police encounter after a man seen being punched by an officer later died from his injuries.

The video shows the February 16 encounter between Baltimore County Police Officer Derek Hadel and 56-year-old Samuel “Big Sam” Brown near Whitehead Court and Security Boulevard in Woodlawn.

According to investigators, Hadel found Brown asleep behind the wheel of a car stopped at a traffic light around 3:30 a.m. Bodycam footage shows Brown stepping out of the vehicle and speaking with the officer before tensions escalate.

At one point in the footage, the officer pushes Brown twice. Brown then knocks the officer’s hand away, after which the officer throws multiple punches.

Brown is seen falling backward and striking his head on the pavement. The footage becomes graphic as Brown lies on the ground while additional officers and emergency responders arrive and attempt to provide aid.

Brown died on February 27, nearly two weeks after the incident.

Following the release of the footage, Brown’s family held a news conference demanding accountability and questioning whether the officer followed department de-escalation policies.

The officer involved, nine-year veteran Derek Hadel, has been identified by the Maryland Attorney General’s Office. The case is currently under investigation by the Attorney General’s Independent Investigations Division, as required under state law for police use-of-force incidents.

Brown’s family says they will continue pushing for answers and justice as the investigation moves forward.

TEXAS — Police have released new surveillance and body camera footage showing the moments surrounding the deadly shooting outside a crowded bar in Austin on West 6th Street that left three people dead and multiple others injured.

During a Thursday news conference, the Austin Police Department said investigators have now identified a total of 19 victims connected to the attack, including the three people who were killed.

Authorities say the suspect, 53-year-old Ndiaga Diagne, first drove past the bar in a black SUV while firing into a crowd gathered outside. Police said Diagne then parked the vehicle, retrieved an AR-15-style rifle, and walked back toward the bar where he opened fire again.

Responding officers were directed toward the suspect by witnesses at the scene. When officers confronted him, Diagne reportedly fired at them before three officers returned fire, killing him.

Footage shown during the briefing included surveillance video, police body camera recordings, dispatch audio and 911 calls made during the shooting.

Investigators said Diagne was wearing a hoodie that read “Property of Allah,” along with a shirt featuring a design resembling the Iranian flag.

Federal authorities are continuing to investigate possible terrorism links. Officials said Diagne had posted antisemitic, anti-Christian and pro-Iran content on social media, and sources familiar with the investigation said tensions surrounding the recent war involving Iran may have been a motivating factor.

Officials also said Diagne had a documented history of mental health issues. He was originally from Senegal, came to the United States in 2000 and became a U.S. citizen in 2013.

The investigation remains ongoing.

CONNECTICUT — Newly released body camera footage shows the moment a suicidal man armed with a knife was shot by Hartford police, offering a clearer look at the events leading up to the officer-involved shooting.

The video captures officers responding to a call about a man in crisis, later identified as 55-year-old Steven Jones. He is seen holding a large knife while standing in the street as officers repeatedly order him to drop it.

Footage shows officers attempting to de-escalate the situation for several minutes. A taser was deployed but failed to stop Jones as he continued moving toward police.

Moments later, Officer Joseph Magnano arrives on scene. Within seconds of exiting his cruiser, he begins shouting commands for Jones to drop the knife.

As Jones continues advancing, Magnano fires nine shots, striking him and bringing him to the ground. Screams can be heard from nearby witnesses as the shooting unfolds.

Jones was transported to a hospital, where he remains in critical condition.

The release of the footage comes as the Connecticut Office of Inspector General continues to investigate the shooting. All officers involved have been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome.

ST. LOUIS, Missouri — A 19-year-old rapper was shot and killed after walking up to a rival’s apartment and knocking on the door in broad daylight, with the entire incident captured on surveillance video.

The shooting happened February 28, 2026, in the Peabody Darst Webbe neighborhood. Video shows WopBlock J4 dressed in all black, approaching the unit while holding his phone. He appears unarmed as he knocks several times.

Seconds later, gunfire erupts from inside the residence. The rapper collapses on the porch after being hit multiple times. The person believed to be responsible has been identified online as rival “Slapperson,” though authorities have not officially confirmed that identification.

The footage shows the full sequence clearly in daylight and has since spread rapidly online, fueling reactions across the St. Louis rap scene.

Officers responded to the 1200 block of South 13th Street, directly across from Peabody Elementary School, and found the victim suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was transported to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Investigators say the killing may be tied to ongoing rivalries within the local drill scene. WopBlock J4 maintained close ties with artist Mo P and the 1448 crew, which has clashed with affiliates from the French Town set.

One person is currently in custody for questioning, while homicide detectives continue to pursue leads.

No formal charges have been announced. The investigation remains ongoing.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A grieving father attacked the man accused of killing his 16-year-old son inside a courthouse hallway, with the violent confrontation captured on video.

The incident happened Thursday at the Mecklenburg County Courthouse when 47-year-old Shaheem Snype allegedly lunged at 21-year-old Marion McKnight, who is currently out on bond in connection with the fatal shooting of Snype’s son, Jamariyae Dixon.

Video from inside the courthouse shows Snype charging at McKnight and unleashing a series of punches and kicks before a deputy intervened and used a Taser to stop the attack.

McKnight was transported to a hospital following the assault. Snype was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault inflicting serious injury but was released hours later after posting a $1,000 bond.

The confrontation comes months after Dixon was shot during an incident on May 23, 2025, in Charlotte. Police said officers found three victims with gunshot wounds at the scene. Dixon later died from his injuries.

McKnight was identified as a suspect, charged with murder, and later released on a $100,000 bond — a decision that has drawn criticism from the victim’s family.

Relatives said emotions boiled over when Snype unexpectedly came face to face with McKnight at the courthouse.

“Any father would’ve did the same thing. We’re still grieving. This is a wound that will never ever close because my nephew was 16 years old, and he should still be here with us.”

Authorities have not announced any additional charges, and the investigation into the courthouse incident remains ongoing.
