Summary

Saginaw police responded to a welfare check call at 11:30 AM on Asbury Drive, where a man with mental health struggles was reportedly attempting self-harm. Officers found him armed with a rifle; after failed de-escalation attempts, one officer fired in response as the man moved toward them. The suspect was transported to a local hospital, though his condition remains undisclosed. Both Saginaw EMS and Fort Worth responders were on scene. The Texas Rangers are now leading an independent investigation, with findings expected to be forwarded to Tarrant County prosecutors. Saginaw PD is also conducting its own internal review to ensure protocol compliance. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
