The video obtained by The Times captures the officer holding a gun in one hand and using the other to break open the passenger window of Parias’ car. As the officer shouts at Parias to turn off the car, Parias raises his hands in the air and asks why he is being detained. The officer repeatedly tries to open the passenger side door, before moving the gun to his left hand — right before firing.

At the time, Parias’ car did not appear to be moving and other agents were positioned beside the driver’s side door. After the gunfire, an agent next to Parias leaps to the side.

“Oh,” the officer who opened fire said, sounding surprised. “F—.”

“Who shot?” an agent asked.

“I shot, I shot,” the officer responded.

Every single thing about this says, “corrupt cops” but the article dances around stating it.

Don’t want those corrupt cops’ buddies visiting their office.
