The family of Brandon Durham, a Las Vegas man shot and killed in his home by Las Vegas police after contacting 911 report to a break-in, are calling for the officer’s arrest.
Durham, a 43-year-old realtor and father, called police after midnight on 12 November and said people had broken into his home and were shooting.
When officers with the Las Vegas metropolitan police department entered the residence, they came upon Durham calling for help as he struggled to wrestle a knife from the hands of a woman wearing a hoodie.
Alexander Bookman, a 26-year officer who joined the Las Vegas police in 2021, yelled “drop the knife” and immediately fired at Durham, as shown in body-camera footage from the department.
