Videos posted on Twitter Friday morning show a Southern California police officer struggling with and then shooting a man who collapses in front of a 7-Eleven.
Footage shows the man rising to his feet and moving away from an officer with a dark object in his hand.
Police say the man was hospitalized but his condition was not released. The officer tried to retain his weapon while the suspect continued to grab at the officer's belt.
Cell phone video of the shooting was posted on Twitter, showing the officer firing five shots at the suspect, who stumbles, collapses against a wall of the convenience store, then crumples to the ground.
However, the police defended the officer's act. "And I don't think there's any way an officer is expected to not defend himself - and that includes lethal force at times", he told our media partner NBC4.

Heal pointed out that the officer involved might have heard something threatening from the man or about the man.
The man doesn't appear to have a gun, but Handy said that didn't matter. Earlier this month, two Huntington Beach police officers got wounded by their own gunfire while confronting a knife-yielding man, reports said.
