View More…. Video from cameras worn by Medina and another officer in the August pursuit was first seen publicly Tuesday afternoon at a press conference at Self Help Graphics organized by Centro CSO, a local community group. Two-and-a-half minutes into the footage, the officers spot two boys outside the building and one of them takes off running.
CAM ROMERO’s tracks
The parents of a year-old boy who was shot and killed by a Los Angeles Police Department officer held a news conference Tuesday where they released body cam footage of the deadly encounter. Jesse Romero's parents joined attorneys and activists at the news conference, where partial body cam footage from Romero's fatal shooting by an LAPD officer was shown for the first time. The family's attorney Humberto Guizar says the graphic footage disproves the city's claim that Romero shot at officers first, and shows that he was unarmed when shot by police responding to a vandalism call. The body cam footage shown by Guizar showed the perspective of the "shooting" officer and the "following" officer while chasing Romero.
Medina was pursuing Romero on foot for having a gun, after someone reported the teen and two others were tagging the wall of a nearby building. Cesar Chavez Boulevard. Medina then turns the corner onto Breed Street and shoots Romero, killing him. On Tuesday, the LAPD and the police commission said the fatal shooting was justified and within department policy because Medina felt threatened. A witness told police they saw Romero point a gun at them.
