Subject was able to fight through OC and a Taser before being shot:
The police Crisis Intervention Team and U.S. Marshals went to a home in the 6400 block of South Bishop Street about 9:30 a.m. to investigate "an escalating series of threats" related to the man's former employer, according to a police news release. It was not believed anyone was in the apartment with him, police said.
When police arrived, the man threatened police with a large knife, then barricaded himself in his bedroom, according to the relase [sic]. A Chicago SWAT team was called in, and after negotiations failed to bring the man out, police first used pepper spray and then a Taser on the man, who was still armed with the knife, police said.
The man then lunged at police with the knife and was shot, according to the release.
Cops are OK.
