Las Vegas, Nevada — The Nevada Highway Patrol released body-worn and dashcam video from an officer-involved shooting at Red Rock Canyon last week. According to NHP, on Nov. 11. shortly before 6 a.m they received a call from the mother of the suspect 29-year-old Erik Legried. She told police her son was going to shoot himself or drive head-on into upcoming traffic to kill himself in his black 2021 Toyota Tacoma. Legried drove through a campsite at Red Rock National Conservation Area before leading law enforcement into the visitors center parking lot. Troopers blocked him in, but he rammed their cars to get away. Eventually, another officer rammed his truck from the side. Airbags than deploy, and Legried starts driving away. Officers then start shooting, and the truck stops a few seconds later. NHP says troopers couldn’t see into the truck due to the deployed airbags and couldn’t tell if he had a weapon. Two troopers and a Bureau of Land Management ranger shot Legried four times in his thighs. No weapons were found in his truck, according to NHP. No officers were injured during the shooting. Legried is expected to recover and face several charges, including battery of a protected person, resisting a public officer, and damaging or destroying state property. Both of the NHP troopers involved have been placed on paid administrative leave while the incident is under investigation. Legried is due back in court on Nov. 30 at 9:30 a.m.

  1. Why does he sound like an entitled pos! Gets mad at the officers when they shot him like he didn’t just try to run them over! 🤦🏻‍♂️

  2. Not a fan of this, at least how it turned out. The guy was clearly giving up at 2:23, then the cop rammed him. There is a good chance the outcome would've been different had he not done that.

  3. They need shooting lessons from Rittenhouse. He’d have taken out at least three kiddy fiddlers with that many rounds.

  4. These cops should have shot earlier when the vehicle was going towards them, instead they let him go, endangering the lives of others. It was probably a legal move I understand.
