Mesa, Arizona — On August 22, 2022, around 11:30 p.m., a woman called 911 and told the operator that she had just returned to her home, on the 500 block of West 9th Street and noticed her front door had been compromised and she could hear someone inside. She advised the operator that she had an unsecured handgun in her kitchen. The woman did not enter her apartment, but waited outside for officers to arrive. When officers approached the apartment, they began giving commands for the person inside to come out. Officers saw a man later identified as 21-year-old Abdul Basit Ishan, run from the apartment and try to force his way into a different unit. When he couldn’t get in, he gained access to its attached exterior laundry room. Officers surrounded that area and again gave commands. Based on the possibility that Ishan was armed and had access to the unit through the laundry room, they moved in closer. Ishan fired at least one round.

The team backed off and called Chandler SWAT to assist. When the SWAT team arrived, they deployed a robot and a drone, both equipped with cameras. From the drone video, Ishan can be seen hiding in the corner and covering himself in blankets. Ishan points a gun outside of the blanket and Fires at the Drone. Ishan refused to exit and shot the drone and the robot. SWAT officers then deploy gas into the laundry room. After some time, Ishan agreed to come out. Despite clear instructions to keep his hands up, Ishan lowered his hands, pulled up his shirt and reached toward his waistband. That is when the officer involved shooting occurred. Ishan was placed in custody and taken to the hospital. During the investigation a black handgun along with multiple fired casings were recovered from the laundry room. Abdul Basit Ishan is facing more than two dozen felonies related to this case, including burglary in the first degree and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

  1. So, officers ask him to raise his shirt like they often do, then shoot him for finally being compliant because they are pissed off at that point. IF YOU ARE A THUG. DONT BLINDLY FOLLOW POLICE INSTRUCTIONS. Simply show the palms of your hands to the police and ignore EVERY THING ELSE THEY TELL YOU TO DO. They can't shoot you if you do that. If you follow other instructions, they CAN AND WILL SHOOT YOU. Just stand there showing your open palms with your fingers spread. They may tackle you, but you will live. Don't let the police prey on you for a good story to tell around beers.

  2. An other « chance » for the USA 🤦🏼‍♂️

  3. I noticed the disclaimer, that's a law that needs to be changed. If your crime is caught on video skip the trials. Also bring back public hanging so the next generation sees what happens when you choose to be a criminal.

  4. I wonder if he’s one of those thousands of ”refugees” that came over from Afghanistan 🤔

  5. I lived next to a guy who also shot at a robot. Charged him with damaging a police vehicle.
