Police say once the man pointed a gun at an officer, multiple officers returned fire.

At least four officers were shown running towards the suspect and shooting.

Officers had to move two witnesses out of the way before kicking the gun away from 29-year-old Brian Benally.

Officers immediately tried to help Benally, applying tourniquets to his legs

A month later, police say he's still at a hospital.

No one else was hurt.
