BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — The Buffalo Police Department has released body camera video after Officer Marc Hurst was shot six times when responding to a call on Sherman Street on Tuesday.
Buffalo Police responded to a home on Sherman Street around 2:15 p.m. Tuesday. Police Commissioner Erika Shields said a woman said her husband locked her in a room, had a pistol and threatened to sodomize her.
Newly released body camera video shows 33-year-old Minhaz Siddiqui of Buffalo in the kitchen area of the home. Officers entered after Siddiqui was allegedly "unwilling" to come out of the kitchen area, according to Shields.
The video shows officers attempting to handcuff him, but police say Siddiqui had a concealed weapon on him, and shots were fired.
