Las Vegas Police Officers Fatally Shoot Armed Driver At Traffic Stop

** (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) **
Las Vegas Metro police released body cam video of the officer involved shooting that left one man dead. The shooting happened on Friday morning near the 200 block of Madge Lane as those officers were headed to another call. Officers say they noticed a car driving recklessly, so they pulled the car over. That’s when video shows the driver, identified as 22-year-old Junior David Lopez, get out of the car with a gun—and immediately drop it. But two other passengers in the car said that they recall how this unfolded differently. Lopez’ girlfriend, Amber Bustillo and her friend, Kimberly Gonzales, were in the car. They said they heard Lopez say he had a gun with a permit. They also said he had it in the holster the whole night. Gonzales said she remembers seeing him toss the gun towards the back tire. Metro officers say that Lopez told officers to shoot him, twice.

But Bustillo and Gonzales said they heard him say, “Don’t shoot me,” before shots were fired. Despite being given commands to stay away from the gun, Lopez then got to his knees and reached for it. Both officers fired at least 2 rounds, Striking Lopez. Even after he was hit, Lopez continued to reach for the weapon, forcing one of the officers to fire another shot, hitting him. Lopez later died at the hospital. Lopez’ father said he will meet with Metro officers on Wednesday to take a look at the video and judge for himself what happened. He also said he would like witnesses to come forward and share their account. This is the fifth officer involved shooting for metro police in 2018, and the third to turn deadly.

  1. Like the suspect is so damn idiot. Why would you reach for a gun when your at gun point? I mean what does he expect he will have the time to shoot first? And he does it again. Is he wanna die or what?

  2. Taking anyones lives like maggot without understanding anything? Police needs some training. This is idiotic

  3. He is down and about to die he is moving in pain and you shoot again. You could have walked up and kicked the gun away he absolutely throughout his gun to give up

  4. It doesn’t matter who you are… you reach for a gun and don’t follow lawful commands, YOU WILL GET SHOT!!

  5. here goes the media with their bs recommendations🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

  6. Police officer: don't reach for it!

    Guy: reaches for gun n gets shot

    Retards in the comments: hE wAs BrUsHiNg It AwAy

  7. What if the video has been altered? What if the sept had a guy that could alter it and hide the evidence it was altered? What if “shoot me” was actually “don’t shoot me”? And Or taken from another part of the video? Ask John Hunt “Fake video” if this is possible.
