"Drop the f*****g knife," officers can be heard shouting.
"No, officer, don't do it," horrified onlookers inside the synagogue shouted as the cop pulled out his weapon.
Peters, who police believe was a homeless drifter, repeatedly asks if the officer will shoot him.
"If you don't drop the knife, I will," the cop calmly replied.
"No, no, no don't shoot, don't shoot," the crowd shouts.
"Stay the f**k away from the knife, now," police shout.
Peters was soon shot once, in the stomach. Both he and the knife fell to the ground.
He was soon rushed to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead at 3:15 a.m., according to the New York Daily News.
