Troopers from the Washington barracks planned a news conference today on the shooting of 34-year-old Anthony Gallo.
Gallo's family says he had been acting strangely since injuring his head in a May car accident. They called 911 yesterday afternoon, hoping troopers would help get him a mental health commitment.
Police encountered Gallo at the trailer park in Canton Township where he'd been staying with his grandmother. Washington County Coroner Tim Warco says troopers fired when Gallo refused to drop the knife and aggressively moved toward police.
The district attorney is reviewing the shooting, which is standard.
