Oklahoma City Police just dropped dramatic body cam footage … showing the intense moment cops shot an armed man in a fatal incident that began as a mental health call.
The clip’s a tough watch — It shows Brandon Lena , in distress, walking around with a pistol outside his house near Tinker Air Force Base.
Despite officers’ efforts to calm things down, it escalates quickly, ending with Lena’s death in the street.
Watch the video … Officers James Doran , Joshua Geerdes and Jimmy Hatfield introduce themselves as Crisis Intervention Team members … and they beg Lena to drop the gun. He’s repeatedly warned — but Lena points his gun straight at them.
Officers fire less-than-lethal 40mm projectiles in an effort to subdue Lena, striking him in the torso … but he’s still aiming his gun at the officers. They shoot more less-than-lethal rounds in a futile attempt to defuse the situation.
Officers are then heard firing multiple rounds of gunshots at Lena … instantly killing him.
