AUSTIN, Texas - The Austin Police Department has released body camera footage of an officer-involved shooting from last month.

Witnesses said the birthday was over, but then violence began.

"Do you speak Spanish," a 911 caller asked dispatch as he tried to portray his urgent message through a translator.

It was around 12:30 a.m., on Sunday, January 21. The caller said someone had been stabbed multiple times and the suspect still had the knife and was inside the home on Uttimer Lane in Northeast Austin.

Court documents revealed inside the home, Jose Reynaldo Martinez-Argueta had stabbed his wife, Maryuri Leticia Reconco-Moncada, stabbed a man named Miguel Angel Pineda-Lopez, and then threatened to rape and kill Pineda-Lopez’s wife, Delmi Dalila Montes, while cutting and stabbing her in the back.
