* (Disclaimer: The content in this video is intended for educational and informational purposes only) Vestal, N.Y. — On February 25, 2026, at approximately 11:36 a.m., Broome County Dispatch received a call reporting a male armed with a knife was experiencing, what the caller described as, a psychiatric episode at a residence on Sequoia Lane in the Town of Vestal. The dispatcher gathered additional information before dispatching Vestal Police units shortly after 11:39 a.m. When dispatched, officers were advised that a male, later identified as 38-year-old Eslam Hegazy, was armed with a knife. The first officer arrived on scene approximately three and a half minutes later where he observed Hegazy from a distance, in the wooded area, holding a knife in his right hand. Hegazy was seen advancing toward another officer, who was checking the area. Commands were given to drop the knife, at which point Hegazy ignored commands and continued to advance on patrol officers and raised the knife above his head. As the subject moved back toward the front of the house, both officers deployed both of their taser cartridges in an effort to subdue Hegazy, using less-lethal force. Although one deployment had a limited effect, causing Hegazy to fall, Hegazy retained possession of the knife and quickly stood up, ignoring an additional command to drop the weapon. Officers continued to give commands for Hegazy to drop the knife. Hegazy then entered and exited the garage and attempted to access a vehicle parked in the driveway through an open driver’s side window. Hegazy then returned to the garage and removed a TV from it. While still holding the knife, Hegazy advanced on officers once again and threw the TV at an officer, who was struck while trying to deflect the flat screen television away from his head. A third officer, who arrived on scene, deployed an additional taser, which was ineffective, as well. Hegazy subsequently turned toward an officer and advanced while raising the knife above his head. The officer discharged his firearm. Another officer also discharged their firearm. Officers immediately moved closer to Hegazy to prepare to render aid and take Hegazy into custody. Once it was safe to do so, an officer retrieved a medical supply kit from a patrol vehicle, while other officers detained Hegazy and rendered aid until EMS arrived on scene. Hegazy was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead later that day. Officers recovered a knife from the scene. A total of five taser cartridges were deployed by three officers. One officer was struck by the thrown flat screen television. In total, four rounds were discharged, striking Hegazy. 🚨𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑙 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑥𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑜𝑐𝑢𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑦𝑠𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 𝑝𝑜𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑒 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑝𝑢𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑦 𝑎𝑣𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑠. ⚠️𝑉𝑖𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑟 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑖𝑠 𝑎𝑑𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑒𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑠 𝑛𝑎𝑡
