PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Bodycam video has been released after officers shot and killed a man in a Pearl District apartment on Feb. 5.
The video, which is over an hour long, shows the time leading up to the shooting in the apartment on Northwest 14th Avenue, including the moments after the suspect, 57-year-old Erik Sherrer, was shot and killed.
The incident came five days after Portland police said Sherrer had visited a Safeway, pretended to be a U.S. Secret Service Agent, and attempted to shoot a security officer with a handgun.
