ANTIOCH (CBS SF) — An Antioch Police Officer shot a man early Friday morning who was reportedly visibly distressed and wielding a knife, according to the department.

Around 12:50 a.m., two officers arrived at an apartment on W. 3rd Street, responding to reports of a family member in the midst of a mental health crisis. When the officers entered the apartment, the subject of the call, a 45-year-old male, came out of the kitchen holding a knife.

Once the officers were outside, he returned to the apartment and closed the door. Then suddenly, officers say, the man rushed out of the apartment and charged the officers while holding the knife.
