San Jose police involved in another fatal shooting.

San Jose police shot to death a suspected shoplifter Thursday after he allegedly flashed a knife, the fourth fatal officer-involved shooting in the city this year. Police unsuccessfully tried to subdue the man with Taser stun guns before firing at him. The man was declared dead at the scene. The man's name was not released but local media outlets identified him as 21-year-old Johnny Nakao, the son of a Santa Clara County sheriff's deputy. Police officers were called at 9:35 a.m. to come to a Radio Shack store after employees reported a man stole a portable CD player and camcorder battery and threw merchandise at the workers. The man was in the store when police arrived, but fled after an officer shot him with a stun gun. Officers chased the man into the street. He then turned toward them with a knife and approached the officers, police said. After another unsuccessful stun gun shot, two other officers shot and killed the man. [more ]
