The Martin County Sheriff's Office is sharing new information about a police-involved shooting over the weekend.

Officials have just released the name of the suspect accused of charging at a Stuart Police officer while holding a knife on Saturday.

Surveillance video from the scene at the Sierra Condos captured 36-year old Kenneth Cook running towards the cop "at full spring." The officer was trying to talk to the man at the time.

Life-saving measures were administered but the suspect died after being taken to the hospital by ambulance.

The Sheriff's Office took over the investigation.
