Officers gave numerous orders for the male to drop the handgun and exit the room but the male refused. At that time an Elmira Police Officer discharged their Taser at the male which was ineffective and the male retreated to a small closet. The male then exited the closet and pointed the handgun at Officers. At that time an Elmira Police Officer discharged his duty firearm at the male striking him. The male was taken into custody, provided medical assistance and taken to a local hospital. The male did sustain life threatening injuries however at the time of this release was stable and alert.
