Nope, not that one Octagon. It was one where the bad guy is walking away from the cameras with a cop on each side of him. In a parking lot, I think.
It the incriminating video the BG sort of hunches his right shoulder just a bit. Really not that noticeable. That's where he drew from his waistband and started shooting.
Opened my eyes to the frailties of cameras big time.

The wild incident started just before 7 p.m. with a report of a woman being carjacked at gunpoint at the West Covina Mall.
Officers spotted the 2015 Toyota Corolla described by the 911 caller and tried to pull it over, but the driver kept going, according to the West Covina Police Department.
The chase ended a few minutes later when the Corolla crashed into another vehicle in La Puente near Amar Road and Willow Avenue.
A male suspect who was a passenger in the stolen car tried to flee on foot, but officers with a K-9 unit were able to catch him. The K-9 grabbed onto the man's arm, chomping down to subdue him. The female driver was also taken into custody.
After the chase ended and police investigated they discovered a surprising twist: The couple had apparently called the carjacking report on themselves.

West Covina has a very good K9 Unit. If a Handler is giving you announcements you'd better comply.

This one is interesting from the TASER and handgun perspective. Listening to the audio it sounds like he was tasered.

When we talk about how the media hyper-criticism of police shootings is going to get good cops killed, the fact that two officers pulled out tasers in response to gunshots is exactly what I worry about.
Edit: As a Monday-morning quarterback criticism of myself here, I just realized they may have already had those in hand because he was indicating he was going to resist, and it might have just been muscle memory.
Very much a good shoot. Regrettable it had to happen.
