The Nevada County Sheriff’s Office on Wednesday released video that shows a deputy fatally shooting a woman holding a knife as she chased after another deputy in front of her children two weeks ago.
Ariella Sage Eloise Crawford was shot in front of her children on the afternoon of Feb. 4, the Nevada County District Attorney’s Office has said. Crawford’s birth name was Deidre Eloise Hawkins.
Crawford, 33, died at a hospital. No one else was injured during the encounter.
The fatal shooting occurred in the mountain town of Alta Sierra, just south of Grass Valley. Shortly after 1 p.m., the Sheriff’s Office received a report of a person walking in the middle of the street with her two small children on Alta Sierra Drive, sheriff’s officials said.
