Dublin Shooting: Neighbor Says Suspect Had Knife in Street Before

Neighbor Albert Ybarra said he heard three shots and that the suspect has been in the street before with a knife.

A neighbor of the man shot by a Dublin Police officer on Wednesday told Patch he heard loud arguing and looked down the street, where he saw the officer "taking aim" at something behind a truck.

"I couldn't see what he was aiming at," said Albert Ybarra, a resident of the 7500 block of Frederiksen Lane, where on Friday morning police shot and wounded a 28-year-old man they said was wielding a large "Rambo-style" knife. "It was something on the other side of (the suspect's father's) truck."
