Video shows Richmond detective breaking into his own vehicle after fatally shooting man

HERCULES — A video circulated on social media shows new details from a fatal police shooting that shut down Interstate 80 for hours on Thursday.

The video, which has been posted on Instagram and TikTok and viewed thousands of times, shows a man either dead or dying from gunshot wounds as the Richmond detective uses a blunt object to smash in the driver’s side of his own vehicle and open the door, after apparently locking himself out. He drops the object next to the man on the ground as the roughly 15-second video ends.
