“Shots fired, shots fired, shots fired,” Tierney Tomburo said into her radio. As she screamed, her body camera tilted upward, capturing the dark sky.
LAS VEGAS — Las Vegas police lapel videos played Wednesday during a public review of evidence inshowed the moment an officer was shot and wounded during a pre-dawn traffic stop and the dramatic aftermath as her partner rushed to her side to apply a tourniquet.
The public review on Wednesday was held because the Clark County district attorney’s office decided earlier this year that Tomburo was justified in her use of force and will not be charged in connection with the shooting on Sept. 10, 2022. Police have said Tomburo and her partner — identified by authorities only as Officer Dueñas — were patrolling the area around the college campus when they stopped the SUV and asked the three men inside to exit the vehicle because the driver did not have a license.Charles, who had been in the front passenger seat, stepped out of the vehicle, walking slowly at first around the back of the SUV before he took off running through the parking lot of an apartment complex.
Back at the site of the traffic stop, Dueñas’s lapel video shows he was handcuffing one of the two remaining men near the hood of their patrol car when the gunshots rang out. Tomburo screamed.
