Brutal Video Shows Moment Cop Shot a Man at Car Dealership
New video brings into clearer focus the final, shocking moment when North Carolina police officer Timothy Larson fatally shot 29-year-old Brandon Combs through the windshield of Larson's police SUV.
The video—shared by the Combs’ family lawyer with The Daily Beast prior to what the city of Concord said would be its public release Thursday—offers an unobstructed view of what former Cabarrus County District Attorney Roxann Vaneekhoven recently concluded was not a crime. Instead, the prosecutor said, the shooting amounted to reasonable use of force by a police officer who feared for his life.
Combs’ family maintains otherwise.
