Shocking new footage has emerged of a detective fatally shooting a robbery suspect brandishing a gun from a moving car last month in Arizona.
The Mesa Police Department released footage last week of robbery suspect Ny’Kendreon Pride, 20, walking through a residential area.
After Pride refused their orders to surrender, a detective in the backseat of the car threw a non-lethal flashbang at him meant to disorient him, body camera footage shows.
When the suspect then refused orders to get on the ground, the backseat detective fired two beanbag shots at Pride while a detective in the front seat fired his service rifle, according to the footage.
“The detective saw Pride reach for what he believed to be a handgun and that’s when he discharged his duty weapon,” explained Detective Brandi George, who narrated the clip.
Pride collapsed on the ground with a Glock in his hand. Police surrounded him and were able to seize the gun after arresting him and using rounds of pepper spray, the video shows.
There were no shots in the Pride’s gun chamber, but a long magazine held 28 rounds, George said.

Pride, who was wanted in connection with three armed robberies in the previous three days, was pronounced dead at the hospital, according to police.
The fatal shooting is being reviewed by the Maricopa County prosecutor, according to police.
“This video will not draw any conclusions as to whether the officer acted in accordance with policy and the law until all the facts are known and the investigation is complete,” said Sgt. Jamey Cox advised.
