Police DashCam Shows Suspect Wrestle Gun From Officers And Fire Before Leaving Scene

This is the video prosecutors used to convict Daniel K. Clary of attempting to murder two Pennsylvania law enforcement officers. Footage was released over a month after jurors reached a guilty verdict in the case. The Morning Call had sued, saying that prosecutors wouldn’t release the footage even though it was played in court.Show more

Now it’s public. Footage shows Cpl. Seth Kelly and Trooper Ryan Seiple performing a traffic stop on a driver identified as Clary. He was suspected of a DUI. One officer told him to place his hands behind his back. A struggle ensued. The officers tried to restrain him, and he ended up getting tasered.

Clary can be heard screaming as the officers pull him onto the side of the road. He was told to get on his back. The struggle continued, with officers appearing to strike him.

The suspect then ran around the front of his car, pulled out a gun from the vehicle, and opened fire. Bullets struck the officer identified as Kelly. Prosecutors said the corporal sustained several gunshot wounds, and a bullet even served a femoral artery. It almost killed him, authorities said.
