The Madera County (California) Sheriff’s Office has released body camera and dash camera video of a Nov. 20 incident that resulted in a sheriff’s K-9 being wounded and suspect being shot by deputies.
At 4 p.m. deputies were involved in a vehicle pursuit with 41-year-old Allen Scott Williams after a 911 caller reported he was a truck theft victim and was following Allen in his stolen vehicle, ABC 30 reports.
The pursuit ended when Williams got out and ran from the stolen truck. Sheriff's deputies chased Williams on foot and deployed K-9 Obie to chase Williams down.
Moments later, body camera video shows Williams turning and shooting Obie with a shotgun. Two deputies then opened fire, wounding Williams.
