It could be weeks or months before the public gets answers through the official investigation into a Madison police officer's fatal shooting of 38-year-old Corey Ruiz on the city’s Near East Side.
As two Madison police officers struggle with Corey Ruiz, a third officer, kneeling, pushes away Ruiz's right hand, which is holding a knife, partially visible above.
After a Madison police officer, at left, deploys a Taser, Ruiz falls to the pavement while another officer stomps on his hip. Wires connecting the Taser to its probes can be seen hanging from the weapon.
