PoliceA second disturbing video has surfaced on social media of events which took place after police shot and killed three men on June 27, in Second Caledonia, Morvant.

It has sparked new criticism in comments online from people who have watched the 39-second clip.

The video, which appeared to have been recorded by a home security camera, from in front, shows the actions of police from a different angle, seconds after the shooting incident.

It appears to contradict the officers’ report on where the victims were when they were shot.

It will likely be useful in the Police Complaints Authority probe of the circumstances which led to the deaths of the three men at the hands of a team of highly-trained officers assigned to the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) and the Guard and Emergency Branch.

The video shows police dragging what appear to be the dead bodies of two of the men from the car. A third man is seen lying at the side of the road behind the car.

Police involved in the shooting said in their official report that they took the injured men to hospital in the back of one of the jeeps. Doctors declared them dead on arrival.
