NORTH LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The North Las Vegas Police Department has released new videos that show a man approaching police officers with a knife before they shot him.
In a previous statement about the shooting, North Las Vegas Police wrote that officers responded to a domestic disturbance on the afternoon of August 8 in the 3100 block of Emmons Avenue, near Lake Mead Boulevard and Pecos Road.
According to police, a woman called 911 to report that her son, since identified as 34-year-old Sebastian Gomez, had hit her and was now damaging vehicles in the area and yelling violent threats.
Police say when officers encountered Gomez, he was armed with a knife in each hand. He's said to have ignored multiple commands from responding officers for him to drop the knives.
Body-worn camera footage since made public by the North Las Vegas Police Department shows the moments leading up to the shooting.
At one point in the video, Gomez appears to charge at police officers before they fire their weapons at him. He was taken to a local hospital, where he died from his injuries.
The officers who fired their weapons were identified as Officer Saul Macias and Officer Julian Castro. Both were placed on paid administrative leave.
No officers were injured while responding, North Las Vegas Police noted.
They add that this is the third officer-involved shooting for the North Las Vegas Police Department in 2025.
