. Xuan Kha Tran Pham, 49, had not taken his medication in three weeks. “He is in a really bad condition,” the father said. “All day and all night, he mumbles … he talks and looks like he talks with someone in his brain, and suddenly, he is shouting angrily.
” State court records also show Pham was charged in January 2022 with felony assault on a law enforcement officer, attempted disarmament of the officer’s stun gun, and resisting arrest—but they were dropped. Earlier the same morning of the assaults, home security footagePham chasing a screaming woman in his neighborhood with a bat.
