On September 18, 2025, Aurora Police Department responded to an unprecedented 911 call where a 17-year-old male called emergency services on himself, threatening to "shoot up" a gas station at South Parker Road and East Mississippi Avenue and open fire on responding officers. In today's episode, we analyze the body camera and surveillance footage that captured this tragic confrontation. **Key Analysis Points:** - Responding to threats called in by the suspect themselves - unique psychological element - De-escalation timeline and command compliance attempts with armed juvenile - Youth suspect threat assessment protocols and legal considerations - Civilian evacuation and perimeter security at active commercial location - Less-lethal options deployment - two rubber bullet rounds fired - Mental health crisis recognition indicators during confrontation - Split-second decision-making when suspect charges officers - Multi-angle documentation from body cameras and surveillance systems **Incident Outcome:** The teenager told 911 dispatchers he had a 9mm handgun and intended to shoot up the gas station and fire on police. Three Aurora officers arrived and issued repeated commands for the teen to show his hands and get on the ground. The teen exited the store and advanced toward officers, keeping one hand in his pocket despite 20-30 verbal commands over 1-2 minutes. Officers deployed less-lethal rubber bullets twice, but the teen continued advancing. When he closed to within 10-15 feet, one officer discharged their firearm, striking the teen multiple times. He was pronounced dead at the scene. **Critical finding: No weapon was found on the teen or in the area.** Aurora Police Chief Todd Chamberlain stated the lack of weapon did not change the officers' perception of imminent threat based on explicit 911 threats and non-compliance. Body camera and surveillance footage released September 27, 2025. Investigation conducted by 18th Judicial District Critical Incident Response Team. This is Aurora PD's fifth officer-involved shooting in 2025. **Badge Cam Daily:** Professional analysis of police body camera footage. Monday through Friday, 4-6 minutes.

On July 30, 2025, Tampa Police Department Master Police Officer Jordan Laupert was shot in the leg by 21-year-old Jaylin Greene outside the TPD District Two office. The incident occurred after what appeared to be a cordial conversation through a fence, where Officer Laupert provided Greene with directions to police headquarters. In today's episode, we analyze the body camera footage that captured this unpredictable attack and the officer's response. **Key Analysis Points:** - Officer response and tactical positioning during seemingly routine contact - Immediate actions after being shot - camera reactivation under duress - Self-assessment of injuries while maintaining scene awareness - Radio communications and backup coordination while wounded - Suspect flight patterns and multi-agency pursuit protocols - Officer survival mindset and training effectiveness under crisis - Body camera as critical evidence tool in ambush scenarios - Mental health crisis indicators in suspect behavior **Incident Outcome:** Officer Laupert initially deactivated his body camera as he walked away from the conversation but reactivated it immediately after being shot. The footage captures Laupert visibly stumbling after being struck in the leg. He radioed for help, and responding officers applied a tourniquet before transport to hospital. Officer Laupert, a 10-year veteran and school resource officer, did not require surgery and was expected to make a full recovery. Jaylin Greene fled across the street toward Busch Gardens and was found deceased from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. Greene was believed to be experiencing a mental health crisis at the time.
