They tried to Taser the guy twice.
Just out of interest, what would you have done differently?
Use physical force?
Why is it all well and good for them to risk innocent peoples lives by firing a loaded weapon in a confined space?
Firefighters risk their lives everyday, cops cant even risk a fight.
Seriously? That's your solution, a wrestling match with a knife weilding perp?

Thats a standard police response in the first world.
Your solution is to murder innocent civilians.
