A man in Portland, Oregon, threatened police with a sword, and threw an ax and several knives at them after he was caught breaking into a home on Saturday, authorities said.
The suspect, later identified as 20-year-old Chance T. Haylett, was inside the home when officers arrived and set up a perimeter, police said. When Haylett spotted the officers outside, police said he "he became combative, charging out the back toward officers on the perimeter while carrying a sword."
While an officer fired a less-lethal foam-tip projectile at the suspect to keep him at a distance, police said he continued to threaten officers with the sword. Police said he also threw an ax and knives at officers.
