Upon entering the home and identifying themselves as law enforcement officers, Officers Powers and Riddle quickly confronted Griffin, who was brandishing a firearm and standing dangerously close to the woman.

Faced with imminent danger, the two officers reacted quickly, firing several rounds at Griffin, striking him at least once. The entire confrontation, from the officers entering the residence to the moment Griffin was incapacitated, took less than 5 seconds.

After the exchange of gunfire, the officers secured the gun Griffin was wielding and provided assistance to the injured woman, ensuring her safety and well-being after the traumatic event.
