Jeramy Dorsey, 25, of Oakland, allegedly shot a member of his family, whose identity was not immediately known, at a residence in the 1100 block of Encina Avenue, police said.
Dorsey was subsequently shot by a police officer who responded to the scene. Police say body-worn camera footage shows that Dorsey fired one shot at the officer prior to being shot by the officer.

Details of body camera footage as detailed by the police department showed that the suspect, identified as 25-year-old Jeramy Dorsey, shot once at officers who subsequently pursued him on foot and ordered him to drop the gun in his possession.
