JACKSONVILLE, Florida -- A month after the Jacksonville State Attorney's Office announced a new policy that it said would lead to the swifter release of body-worn camera footage, the prosecutors office released dozens of videos related to seven police shootings over the last year. In some cases the videos offer the first opportunity to understand what happened when officers shot someone. In others the footage shows that body-camera footage can never answer all the questions that come in the aftermath of a police #shooting. The video shows Lawson come to a crashed vehicle with its doors open. Lawson jumps out of his patrol car, shouts at the motorists, and in less than a second opens fire. (Read the full story.)

The Philadelphia Police Department Homicide Unit is looking to identify the two individuals, depicted in the following surveillance video excerpts, as part of an ongoing investigation into the shooting death of a thirty-year old male, that occurred in the 1900 block of S. Croskey Street on Thursday, June 25th, 2020, at about 1:20 AM. It is noted that the taller, heavier male (SUSPECT #2) appears to be limping as the two males are fleeing. It is unknown if this is from an injury sustained by the male during the shooting incident. Both males are last seen fleeing on foot eastbound onto the 2200 block of Mifflin Street from the 1900 block of S. Croskey Street. THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA IS OFFERING A REWARD OF $20,000 LEADING TO AN ARREST AND CONVICTION FOR EVERY HOMICIDE. If you see these suspects do not approach, contact 911 immediately.

Illinois State Police have released dash camera video Sunday that gives a look into what exactly happened when a traffic stop earlier this week turned into a deadly #shooting. The incident happened in south suburban Harvey at 147th Street and S Halsted Street. The dashcam video starts just before 12:30 Wednesday morning showing an ISP Trooper behind an SUV that was turning right onto 147th from Halsted in Harvey. The trooper then initiates a traffic stop. The trooper later requests the female driver to get out of the vehicle and asks her if she "forgot the lights" on her vehicle. She replied, "No. I thought they were on, that they automatically cut on." The trooper then instructs his partner to help the male front-seat passenger, who was later identified as 30-year-old Darren Green Junior, out of the SUV. (Read the full story.)
