The officer speaking to a group of people in a red vehicle and instructing them to keep their hands on the dashboard. A man in the front passenger seat initially complies but then moves his left hand to reach down. The officer, identified as Mason Wills, then points a gun at the man. “Keep your hands on the f---ing dash. If you reach down there again I will shoot you, motherf---er,” Wills says. “Keep them on the dash, bro,” another person says. Wills speaks into his radio and requests backup, and the man in the passenger seat moves his hand for a second time. “Don’t reach for that f---ing gun or I’ll shoot you, motherf---er,” Wills orders again. “He’s not going to,” someone in the car says. “Hey, stay back,” Wills tells someone who is not visible. “Don’t reach for that f---ing gun. Keep your hands on the dash.” The man moves his hand for a third time moments later, which is when Wills opens fire. A gun is not visible on camera during the exchange based on the angle of the camera. After shots are fired, the video fades to black and cuts to another shot of multiple officers surrounding the vehicle. Officers open the passenger door and pull a firearm from the footwell of the front passenger seat. Police identified it as a 7.62 mm Draco AK pistol. Police have yet to offer a reason for initiating the traffic stop. Wills has been placed on administrative leave.
