On October 23, 2023, 42-year-old **Elroy Clarke** was confronted by **Charlotte County Sheriff's deputies** over an outstanding misdemeanor warrant. Clarke refused to cooperate, gave deputies a false name, and resisted attempts to take him into custody.

But the encounter escalated when Clarke charged toward a deputy with a **firearm drawn**. Deputies then opened fire, fatally shooting Clarke. This **bodycam video** shows the arrest confrontation from the deputies' perspective, including the escalating use of force and the moments leading up to the **officer-involved shooting**. ⚖️ **LEGAL BREAKDOWN** Under **Florida law**, law enforcement officers may use deadly force when they reasonably believe it is necessary to protect themselves or others from an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm.
