Long Island police shoot man dead during dispute

Video obtained by The Post shows police fatally shoot a knife-wielding man after he stabbed a cop on Long Island, police and sources said. 

The Suffolk County officers were responding to a domestic violence call at a home in Bay Shore at 9:10 a.m. when Taiquell Woodson “came out charging at the officers with a knife,” according to police.

“One officer fell into the snow and Woodson jumped on top of him and stabbed him multiple times,” cops said. “The second officer attempted to deploy his Taser.”

A third officer then fired his service weapon and struck 33-year-old Woodson, police said.  He was pronounced dead at South Shore University Hospital.

The video shows the man running out of the house and jumping on the police officer. He appears to wave a large kitchen knife in the video.

An officer on the scene applied a tourniquet to stop the stabbed cop’s bleeding, police said.
