The Salt Lake City Police Department just released footage from an officer-involved critical incident at a traffic stop earlier this month.

An SLCPD officer was conducting a traffic stop at 1:41 a.m. on Thursday, Jan. 9, near 375 South 765 West with a community member who was on a ride-along with the officer.

According to police, the suspect, 32-year-old Chandler Grillone, approached the officer during the traffic stop. The officer was sitting in his car. Grillone was not involved in the traffic stop.

Through the body-camera footage, Grillone can be seen startling the officer and saying the person who was pulled over didn’t do anything illegal.

He threw his possessions at the officer and at one point put his hands up in a fighting pose. Throughout the incident, the officer gave multiple commands to Grillone, who had a weapon.

After Grillone was given repeated commands to stop, he began pointing at and walking toward the police car, where the community member still was. At this time, the SLCPD officer fired at least one round.

Grillone was taken to the hospital, where he later died.

Officers recovered a weapon from Grillone at the scene.
