From the Miami Herald:
A grisly scene unfolded Saturday morning in the middle of a busy South Beach thoroughfare when police shot and killed a man who allegedly held up a bank, fled to a nearby barbershop and then confronted officers with a straight edge razor — a startling moment captured on video and quickly shared on social media.
In the video, a bald, shirtless man wearing blue jeans and holding a straight razor in his right hand takes a small step toward two Miami Beach police officers, who are aiming their weapons at him outside a barbershop on Alton Road.
No verbal exchanges can be heard on the video, which appeared to be shot from across the street.

In the video, as the man approaches the police officers, he appears to raise the razor with his right hand, and a policeman fires his assault rifle. Two shots are heard in the video, and the man falls backward, clutching his chest as he drops to the street.
