The incident reportedly took place in Oklahoma City, in the US State of Oklahoma, on Monday, 13th March.

However, the Oklahoma City Police Department did not release the footage until a month later, on Friday, 14th April.

The department said in a statement obtained by Newsflash: "Last month one of our officers was injured by a bullet graze wound after responding to an assault at a medical facility."

The incident reportedly began as police responded to a call about an intake patient assaulting employees and bystanders with a metal three-hole punch.

After refusing to cooperate with officers, the suspect grabbed the officer’s gun and fired a round, grazing the officer's leg.

Police said the video shows the officer taking the gun out of the suspect’s hands and taking him into custody.

The officer and a few people at the facility were reportedly taken to a nearby hospital to be treated for their injuries.
