It looks like he fell backwards, implying the car hit him, but the bodycam actually detached. Until another bodycam shows why it fell, the car either clipped his vest or he pulled it off while drawing his gun…
- fabian2k 9mo agoIt's not a bodycam, he had his smartphone in the hand and was filming with it.
- deckar01 9mo agoI see it in the reflection of the car now. He is holding a phone out in front. That makes it less clear how close his body actually was to the car.
- padjo 9mo agoShould be possible to give a good estimate if you know the camera configuration. Clearly the car didn’t hit him very hard if he’s still holding a phone in one hand afterwards. To me this video confirms that the story from the administration that he was run over and hospitalised is nonsense. It also confirms that the couple were being confrontational and obstructionist, but I still don’t think that’s a reason for her to die. A rational organisation would reflect and ask how this sort of scenario can be handled better in future, but that doesn’t seem likely here.
