Rochester, N.Y — On March 20, 2023, a man, identified as 35-year-old Brendon Burns, was seen Monday morning driving a vehicle potentially linked to two other shootings and pulled out a “hunting-style” knife when confronted by officers around 1:00 p.m.. Investigators say Burns threatened deputies with the knife and ran. Deputies fired at least one shot as Burns ran, with officers and deputies chasing him through several yard into a backyard on Barrington Street. Police said that's when Burns displayed a shotgun and refused orders to drop it, prompting officers and deputies to shoot him.

Officers and Deputies performed life-saving measures at the scene; however, the male was deceased. No one else was injured during this incident. Police said the New York State Attorney General's Office is investigating. The Rochester Police Department and Monroe County Sheriff's Office also launched internal investigations. Burns was previously arrested in 2018, accused of intentionally rear-ending a vehicle driven by an off-duty Rochester Police Department officer in Penfield. He was sentenced to 16 weekends in jail and three years of probation.
