Body camera: Jason Walker's father says he jumped on truck before off-duty deputy shot him

The three clips of video released Friday are a small part of the total 20 hours of video recorded at the scene.

"The footage released today is only a few minutes long and represents the first videos we submitted to the judge. However, the city has filed a petition to have all of the body cam footage released which encompasses about 20 hours of video. Staff will be working as expeditiously as possible to review that video and submit it for the judge’s consideration," a city spokeswoman said in a statement.

State law requires that a judge approve any public released of police body-worn video, and Resident Superior Court Judge Ammons granted that in this case. Fayetteville Police Chief Gina Hawkins said the department was currently working to redact portions of the video, and it would be released as soon as possible.

One witness, Elizabeth Ricks, a trauma nurse, jumped into action and tried to save Walker's life.

"I did not see anyone in distress. The man was just walking home," Ricks told WRAL News.

On the video released Friday, Ricks tells police, "I didn't see that he posed a threat."

But two other witnesses said Walker jumped onto the hood of Hash's truck before the shots rang out.

The video shows officers ask who saw what happened. One man, Walker's father, speaks up.

"I saw it," he says, "He jumped up on the hood, and he jumped out his car and shot him."

When police ask how he saw it, the man says he lives across the street and identifies himself.

"That's my son. He's my son," he says, gesturing to Walker.

In the background, officers question Hash, who tells a similar story.

"I was coming down here. He ran across the street so I stopped," Hash told police. "He jumped on my car and started screaming."

In a video from another officer’s body camera, Walker’s father takes investigators step by step through what he says led to the shooting.

He says, "He came over there and came out the yard, and I was trying to get him to come back over here, and I called him, I said, 'Come back, Jason.' He come out into the street.

"He was out here in the daggone street, and the fella drove up, and he jumped up on the guy’s hood, and the guy jumps out and shoots him."

Since Sunday, police have said that Walker started beating Hash’s windshield with one of the wipers.

In the bodycam footage, Walker’s father tells the same story.

"You can see right there he pulled off one of the daggone windshield wipers and hit the windshield with it," Walker's father says.

Asked if Walker had any known mental issues, his father simply responds, "I don't know."

Civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who represented the families of George Floyd and Andrew Brown, is representing Walker's family.

Hash admitted to shooting and killing Walker afterwards, but said he was just trying to protect his family.
