You’re right it’s the case when police are there because the police are containing them and not allowing them to move about freely. Then the de-escalation or use of less lethal intervention options begins. It seems as though you’re under the impression that once police arrive on scene with an emotionally disturbed person with a knife it’s a death sentence. The vast majority of the time those situations are resolved without the person dying.
