In Houston a police officer was called to a nursing home where a schizophrenic double amputee was threatening people with a weapon that turned out to be a pen. The man in the wheelchair was threatening and attempting to attack the police officer after he cornered him and tried to stab him. The police officers partner shot and killed the man. Although some people think that is was unethical to kill the double amputee in a wheelchair I believe that it was ethical because he was trying to protect his partner and himself and trying to stay safe.
