Teenage Boy Shot Dead By Cops For Threatening Mom With Knives And Baseball bat

Archer Amorosi's terrified mother called 911 at 10.a.m on Friday morning to report that her son suicidal and had been threatening her with knives and a baseball bat.

He had also trapped her in the garage and disabled the door's lock. Cops arrived at the home in Chanhassen to find the teen holding a knife and what officers referred to as 'some kind of handgun.'

They say her ignored orders to drop the weapons and took turns aiming the gun at officers and the garage door.

Cops initially used a Taser gun and pepper spray, but eventually two officers opened fire killing the teen.

An officer said that Amorsi wanted police to kill him, saying he had 'this idea that he wants to go out like Bonnie and Clyde.'
