BODY CAM: New Lebanon officer says he shot man twice from the back WHIO Staff
Body camera footage released Friday shows a New Lebanon police officer shoot a man during a traffic stop on Franklin Street earlier this month.
The video obtained through a public records request by News Center 7 shows the officer pull over a woman for driving on a closed road and having expired license plates around 12:30 a.m. on Dec. 10.
After initially talking to the female driver and a male front passenger, the officer returns to his cruiser for about four minutes. A man in the back seat of the car does not appear to say anything.
