Akron, OH Officials release footage of police shooting Jayland Walker. Viewer Discretion Advised twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
One still unanswered question: Why did police try to pull over #JaylandWalker in the first place?
They've said "equipment" and "traffic violations" without expanding on what that means, and the bodycams shown start as chase is already happening.

Akron Police Chief Stephen Mylett, in response to question from me yesterday, couldn't confirm if any video exists of police first trying to pull over Walker.
No dashcam footage, bodycams start during chase. The actual cause of all this may not be on video at all.

This is my full video of the press conference yesterday where some of the footage was shown.
I also asked Walker family attorney Bobby DiCello about that missing moment of video.
He told me that he only knows what he was told by the police about the initial attempt to pull him over - "how it got to this with a pursuit is beyond me."
