NOPD officials release footage from officer-involved shooting incident
NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Officials with the New Orleans Police Department released and discussed video on Thursday showing an officer-involved shooting incident that happened on May 28. According to the NOPD, the shooting happened in the 3500 block of Marais Street. Chief Anne Kirkpatrick says an officer was responding to a hit-and-run call. From there, the problems started when he ordered the man who was standing outside the car to put his hands up. 'The suspect says to the officer and shouts back over the street traffic, I don't want to shoot you,' Kirkpatrick said. Second in-custody death reported at Jefferson Parish jail The video shows the man get back in the car and take off. 'The fact that this person drove off and ran away, drove away did not meet our policy,' Kirkpatrick said. 'That would have allowed them to pursue.' A short time later officers came in contact with the same vehicle and suspect in an apartment complex, ordering him out of the car. Kirkpatrick says her officers opened fire after the suspect got out of the car and pointed at them like he was holding a gun. 'The officer shoots two rounds and then, takes cover,' Kirkpatrick said. 'The suspect is going to turn to the other officers and make the same motion. And then you're going to see the other officers also start to shoot.' Three officers fired a total of sixteen rounds. 'Stop, stop, stop,' said Sergeant Edwin Patrick. Once it was determined the man was not a threat, Sergeant Patrick told everyone to stop shooting. The suspect arrested shortly after in the 1400 block of Gallier Street. Kirkpatrick commends the officer, saying situations like this are intense. 'These events may start fairly nominal, lower-level type of calls for service, and they just turn on a dime on you,' Kirkpatrick said. 'Yet they're making split-second decisions. And so, this was one in which, clearly there was a threat.' New Orleans public defenders prepared to aid if Antoine Massey, Derrick Groves surrender The Chief stands by the actions of her officers, stating this is another case of an officer trying to help someone and it escalates. The suspect sustained minor injuries, such as cuts and abrasions, and was taken to a local hospital. Kirkpatrick says additional charges have not been filed against the suspect.
