Videos released Friday show a Connecticut police officer's fatal shooting last month of an 18-year-old man who drove at him after an attempted traffic stop and chase. The case sparked protests. Story:
This sequential combination of images from police dash camera video released Friday, May 3, 2019, by the Hartford State's Attorney shows, from top left, Police Officer Layau Eulizier pointing his weapon at a car being driven at him by Anthony Jose Vega Cruz during an attempted traffic stop on April 20 in Wethersfield, Conn. Eulizier shot through the windshield, striking Vega Cruz, of Wethersfield, who died two days later at a hospital.
Eulizier and another officer were trying to pull over Vega Cruz, whose nickname was Chulo, because the license plates on the car were not registered to that vehicle, officials said. About 10 seconds later, Vega Cruz loses control of his car when Eulizier, driving from the opposite direction, tries to stop him. The car slides across the road and skids 180 degrees to a stop, and Eulizier rams it head-on with his SUV cruiser. Vega Cruz then puts the car in reverse as Eulizier gets out of his cruiser and yells, “Show me your hands.” As Vega Cruz backs into the street, Salvatore rams the car, and it comes to a stop.
Parts of the videos were edited “out of respect for Mr. Vega Cruz and his family,” Hardy said. There also was no audio on most of the dashcam videos because of apparent microphone synching problems, Police Chief James Cetran said.
