Phoenix police fatally shoots suspect during struggle with officers that left an officer injured
Phoenix police have released body cam video from a shooting late last month that left an officer hurt and a suspect dead.
The situation began shortly before 3 a.m. on Tuesday, May 28, when two officers on patrol stopped a man on a bicycle for traffic violations near 10th Street and Southern Avenue.
When the officer in the passenger seat got out of the patrol SUV, police say the suspect, since identified as 48-year-old Sergio Francisco Alvarez, “immediately became combative.”
The officer driving then got out of the SUV to help detain Alvarez. In the body-cam video, Alvarez is heard yelling for help as the officers tell him he’s under arrest and try to take him into custody.
During the struggle, both officers’ body-worn cameras were knocked off. Only one camera recorded video of the struggle from a few feet away, although the officers and suspect weren’t fully in frame.
Alvarez can then be heard saying, “stop choking me,” while an officer tells him to “stop grabbing my hand.” Police say that’s when Alvarez pulled out a handgun and shot one of the officers in the leg.
“He shot me,” the officer said as the other officer ordered Alvarez to drop the gun. As the officer radios for backup, additional gunshots are heard.
“Where are you hit? Where are you hit?” the officer asks the other as he continues telling the suspect to stay on the ground.
“I got him, dude. Tourniquet yourself,” the officer told the other as he continued struggling with Alvarez.
Other officers then arrived on the scene to help take Alvarez into custody.
The wounded officer was taken to a hospital in serious but stable condition. Alvarez was also transported but died at the hospital a short time later.
