I don't have a link, nor any paper of the story, but here is a short version from what I remember seeing on the local LA County Calif, TV news:
A semi, elderly, black Grandmother, called the local PD for help, as her young, aprox 23 yr old daughter was on drugs, and threatening her, and her baby, the young daughter had in her arms with a box cutter.
2 officers arrived at the seen, went into the upstairs apt, and found that the young mother with child, had barricaded herself and the baby in her bedroom.
The 2 officers quickly got inside her room, and tried to talk her down, and to secure the baby's welfare, that the grandmother/mother of the young girl, called for their help.
High on drugs, she warned them not to approach, or she would cut up the Baby, and the 2 officers made the quick decision to try and physically restrain her from doing that. She cut the baby, as she warned and cut both officers arms, then one of the officers decided that the baby was in peril, and took out his handgun and shot the young mother once, killing her.
The Baby was taken to the hospital, as well as both officers, as the baby needed 40 stitches, one officer required 30 stitches, and the other some 20 stitches, IIRC.
All this on the nightly News, showing the distressed Grandmother, yelling:
"They killed my baby, they killed my baby.." Along with, when she calmed down, during another interview, she said: "Yes, I called the PD because my daughter was up/high on drugs, threatening me and the Baby with a knife.."
"But they did not have to kill my baby, they're just all gun-happy.."
Where does it end..?

*Personally, I think the 2 officers are nothing short of Hero's, and their efforts, wounds, along with the Baby's, reflect this, and their, the one officers, quick decision to end it, unfortunately, thru one shot, that killed the deranged mother of the child, but saving the Baby, and themselves.
*And I think the Grandmother, is nothing short of CarpetBagger, knowing that her 15 mins of fame, via News TV, that thru her actions, then her daughters actions, is nothing short of appealing to any Lawyer, for a free ride to the Bank..
Not a word of thanks, nor mention of the fact, that the real BABY, was not killed, but saved, less 40 stitches, along with the officers cuts requiring 30 for one, 20 for the other.
