Phoenix protesters demand body cam footage after police kill man in parked car
A group of protesters gathered in Phoenix on Sunday to demand the city police department release body-camera footage from the officers involved in the fatal shooting of a man who was killed while sitting in a parked vehicle on the Fourth of July.
Video of the incident, which spread across social media over the weekend, showed a group of officers surrounding a sedan parked in the driveway of a house. Officers can be seen pointing firearms at the driver's side window as one shouts, "stop f---ing moving, I will f---ing shoot you." Seconds later, several shots ring out.
The clip prompted outrage within the Phoenix community. Phoenix City Councilman Carlos Garcia was one of many to decry the use of force by officers and to demand an investigation into the shooting.
"It does not shock us that despite all the scrutiny from community Phoenix PD continues to respond violently to calls. But, we must all continue to ask for transparency and accountability," Garcia wrote in a Facebook post.
