COPA said officers went to a home there on a domestic-related call.

Officers said they encountered an armed individual and victim inside a bedroom. As the victim fled, the man pointed a firearm in the direction of an officer.

ABC7 froze the video, which shows what looks like a gun in the man's hand.

The officer then fired, striking the man. ABC7 froze the video again before the gunshots.

The man, identified as Devon Smith, was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. A gun was recovered at the scene.
