A surveillance camera captured 41-year-old Hashim Abdul-Rasheed lugging a duffel bag down the sidewalk outside a terminal departure entrance. An airline ticket agent had alerted police to him moments earlier for trying to buy a ticket with a female’s ID. Airport Authority Officer Hussein Hartman confronts Abdul-Rasheed outside his GMC Arcadia for illegally parking in a restricted area. Police Fatally Shoot Knife-Wielding Man At Port Columbus Airport As the officer motions for him to step away from the vehicle, Abdul-Rasheed suddenly charged toward him, pulling out a knife. The officer retreats, pulls out his service weapon and shoots Abdul-Rasheed in the leg while backing into a parked car. Both fall to the ground momentarily. The officer gets up and radios for help as Abdul-Rasheed returns to his feet and starts limping toward the officer. A second officer comes into the frame, weapon drawn, as Abdul-Rasheed lunges toward both of them still waving the knife. The officers continue to retreat while continuing to order him to stop. One of the officers takes a swing at Abdul-Rasheed with a baton to no avail.
