According to an investigative report by the Kenosha County District Attorney's Office, the police officer -- identified as Rusten Sheskey -- recalled approaching Blake on the street and telling him, "Let's talk about this." Sheskey said he then grabbed Blake's arm to arrest him and mentioned the warrant, according to the report.

Blake, however, claimed the officers didn't say anything to him.

A struggle ensued and Sheskey alleged that Blake reached for his waistline area, leading police to believe that he was reaching for a weapon. Sheskey deployed his Taser multiple times, but Blake pulled the prongs out of his skin, according to the report.

"At that point, I'm rattled," Blake recalled. "I realized I had dropped my knife, had a little pocket knife. So I picked it up after I got off of him because they tased me and I fell on top of him



Blake always told investigators that he had a knife at the time of the incident, but it’s a detail that his lawyers initially denied based on eyewitness accounts.

Blake said he walked to the front of his vehicle toward the driver's side door so he could put the knife in the car. He said he intended to then surrender to police.




Lmao.....was just trying to put knife in car so he could surrender
