Some days, the healthy choice may not be going for a jog

A METRO police officer today shot and killed a man who, according to reports, acted in a threatening manner with a knife despite being Tased by officers several times. A woman pushing a stroller nearby was apparently grazed by one of those shots, but thankfully the injury was not life-threatening. All of this took place along the busy Rice University jogging trails near Main and University this morning.

Various accounts of the deadly incident are posted on KHOU-11, KPRC-2, KTRK-13, and the Chronicle.

Some of the story comments are just crazy, especially since so few details were immediately available (or maybe because so few details were immediately available).
