Bodycam footage shows the dramatic moment that a New York state trooper shot an 'erratic driver' and said 'you dumb**' when the man backed up into a ramp and died.

Trooper Anthony Nigro, a 14-year veteran, is now under investigation after he chased down James Huber, 38, shortly after 11am on February 12, according to several videos released by the office of Attorney General Letitia James.

One video shows Nigro approaching Huber after he got off Interstate 90 and started driving through downtown Buffalo.

Nigro, who makes $168,182 a year, gets out of his car with his gun drawn and points it at Huber, who is still sitting in his vehicle in the middle of the street.

'Get the f*** out! Get the f***.. .Get out! Get out!' he yells.

'Go away,' Huber responds.

Nigro grabs Huber by his jacket and tries to drag him out. Nigro then fires his handgun into the driver's seat. Huber's car suddenly backs up and flips over the side of a ramp.

'You dumba**,' Nigro says after calling for an ambulance. It's unclear whether he was referring to himself or the suspect.

Huber was seen driving 'erratically' on the highway that morning, according to the Erie Times-News. Troopers tried to stop him as he allegedly flew by at 100 mi per hour.

Attorney General James said the Office of Special Investigation was looking into the incident pursuant to state law, which requires a review any time a law enforcement officer is involved in the death of a civilian.

The state attorney's office says the videos were released 'in order to increase transparency and strengthen public trust in these matters,' according to the Buffalo News.

'The release of this footage is not an expression of any opinion as to the guilt or innocence of any party in a criminal matter or any opinion as to how or whether any individual may be charged with a crime,' the office said.
