The bodycam footage began as at least four officers approached Jabbar’s white Ford F-150 after he drove around a police security point by jumping a sidewalk on Bourbon Street and plowed through a sea of New Year’s Day celebrations.

“Keep your hands up,” officers shout with their their guns drawn at Jabbar.

Seconds later, shots ring out, and at least three police officers dive to the ground, attempting to shield themselves from gunfire.

Jabbar, 42, was killed in the exchange.
