The man who disarmed the shooter

What this review establishes

That is the agency's published account. The bodycam records a chaotic arrival and seconds to identify who held the gun.

What the clip cannot establish alone

This public Voss review identifies observable timing, camera position, and evidentiary limits. It is not a finding of misconduct and is not legal advice.

• The complete unedited record may contain additional context.
• Other camera angles, witness accounts, and later official findings may change the analysis.

PHOENIX — Phoenix Police says the man fatally shot by an officer had disarmed the original shooter and "was not the subject of the original call." Voss finding: rebuild the identification chain before the shots—dispatch information, witness directions, visible hands, weapon possession, warnings, distance and line of sight. Under Graham v. Connor and Tennessee v. Garner, the federal force inquiry is moment-specific. Bodycam is not eye-tracking, and this edit does not decide liability. The investigation is ongoing; no legal or policy conclusion has been made. Source captions checked against the published audio.
