"We're still investigating that. We have to download everyone's camera and interview officers still. It was, it's code red night, right? Water Street, plus we have, you know, a lot of additional activity down here with the festivals, the Labor Day happenings. So there were a lot of officers here, so we have to go through everybody and talk to them," said Assistant Police Chief Nicole Waldner.
"This is literally right as he decides to stop in front of Trinity, got out of the car and started shooting at the police," Victoria Jackson, who witnessed and filmed part of the incident on her phone, said.
