🚨 NEW BODYCAM FOOTAGE RELEASED
The traffic stop that went viral now has bodycam showing what actually happened.
Deputies in San Marcos pulled over a red Hyundai Sonata for a vehicle code violation late at night.
While checking the car, they noticed registration inconsistencies and damage to the steering column, raising suspicions the vehicle could be stolen.
Then things escalated.
Police say the 33-year-old passenger ignored repeated commands, rolled up his window, reached toward the floorboard, and armed himself with a semiautomatic handgun.
Officers safely removed the 21-year-old driver, but the passenger refused orders to drop the weapon and raised the gun.
At that point, five deputies and an officer opened fire.
The man was pronounced dead.
The original video sparked intense debate online… but now the bodycam is adding new context to what unfolded.
