Officer Fires On Naked Unarmed Man Walking Toward Him

* (Disclaimer: The content in this video is intended for educational and informational purposes only) Louisville, Kentucky — On May 30, 2026, according to 911 calls, 27-year-old Martin Nitzken Jr. was watching a basketball game with his girlfriend and friends when he suddenly began acting erratically. His girlfriend told dispatchers that he appeared to be experiencing a mental health crisis, describing him as bipolar and saying he unexpectedly became violent. She reported that Nitzken assaulted her and two friends, leaving one woman with a bleeding wrist and another with chunks of hair pulled out. The three fled to a neighboring home for safety and called 911. After the group escaped, Nitzken went outside and continued behaving unpredictably. Witnesses told police that he stripped off his clothes, ran through the neighborhood naked, tore a shutter off a house, and became involved in an altercation with a neighbor, who reportedly suffered a dislocated shoulder. Additional callers described him as having a "mental break." Police were dispatched around 9:30 p.m. after reports of multiple assaults and a potentially dangerous situation. An emergency helicopter was also sent to monitor the scene from above. Officer Nathan Stotts arrived alone and was directed by bystanders to Nitzken's location. Body camera footage shows Nitzken sitting or lying in the street while naked. Stotts repeatedly ordered him to show his hands and stop moving. Nitzken stood up and began stumbling toward the officer. Although he did not appear to be holding a weapon, he continued advancing despite commands to stop. Roughly 90 seconds after arriving on scene, Officer Stotts fired a single shot that struck Nitzken, who later died at the scene. The shooting quickly drew scrutiny because video showed Nitzken was unarmed and because Stotts did not use less-lethal options before firing. The footage also showed that after the shooting, Stotts remained several feet away with his gun drawn for more than three minutes before aid was provided when additional officers arrived. After reviewing the evidence, Louisville Metro Police Chief Paul Humphrey concluded that the officer's actions did not meet department standards and announced his intention to terminate Stotts. Criminal and internal investigations are continuing. 🚨𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑙 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑥𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑜𝑐𝑢𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑦𝑠𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 𝑝𝑜𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑒 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑝𝑢𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑦 𝑎𝑣𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑠. ⚠️𝑉𝑖𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑟 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑖𝑠 𝑎𝑑𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑒𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑠 𝑛𝑎𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑡.⚠️ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Special thanks to Shout-Out Supporters on Patreon: - 'DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse' - KHALID - Michael Griffin - John Doe - 'Twitchypowpow' - Lillian Daley - Tyrell Robertson - christine Grinter - 'The Evil Queen' - Benjamin Osgood - Gary Wilson - LJ - Edward Aquino - Brianna Wilkins - William - Elisabeth Craig - Bobby Roach - Sarin Dipity - Becky Hopkins - thomas - Cody Stephens - Troy Polansky - Tulla Belle - 'quadrakyiro' - Scott Mackin - "John B.
