The two police officers who shot and killed a man in Brownsville will not be charged, a report from Attorney General Letitia James’ Office of Special Investigation stated on Tuesday.
Damon Louther died on May 13, 2025, after police say he charged at officers with a knife inside an apartment on Christopher Avenue.
Body camera footage released nearly a month later showed NYPD officers James Humpf and Jeffrey Cattani entered the apartment and found the 25-year-old.
As News 12 reported, Louther pulled out a kitchen knife and rushed toward the officers.
Cattani then tased Louther, who continued to advance. Officer Humpf then shot Louther.
He was taken to Brookdale Hospital, where he later died.
The report concluded that because Louther came at the officers with a knife even after they tased him, their actions were justified.
