Body cam video to be released after man killed in shootout with Baltimore Police
Baltimore Police will share body cam video Thursday after a man was killed in a shootout with officers on May 12. The shootout in the 4600 block of York Road occurred after officers tried to approach 26-year-old Jai Marc Howell. Howell led officers on a chase and pulled out a handgun, firing shots at the officers and hitting a police car. He was pronounced dead at a hospital after being shot by police. Investigation into Baltimore Police shooting The Maryland Attorney General's Independent Investigations Division (IID) is looking into the shooting, as is state protocol. Since they launched in 2021, the IID has investigated more than 70 near-fatal or fatal incidents involving police. About 13 of those investigations involved Baltimore Police. IID officials identified the involved officers as Detective Enger Jimenez, Detective Steven Foster, and Detective Tony Tiburzi. Three officers were on foot and a fourth was in a patrol car during the incident, according to Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley. A gun with an extended magazine was recovered from the scene, police said. "...This is another example of where we cannot and will not have people indiscriminately walking around with illegal guns, and willing to use them and shoot them indiscriminately at police officers in the middle of the day, on a block that is always full of people," Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott said after the shooting. Baltimore's crime rate declines According to Worley, the area of York Road where the shooting took place has seen some instances of violence recently. Despite this, Baltimore has recorded a drastic drop in violent crime over the past year. In April, Baltimore recorded its lowest number of monthly homicides, according to Mayor Scott. The city reported 13 homicide cases in April 2024 and five in April 2025, a 61.5% drop over one year. Nonfatal shootings declined by 27% between May 2024 and May 2025.

Oklahoma Motorcycle Cop Pulls Sheriff Over For Speeding
Read the full story on The Auto Wire We hear stories of friction between some police departments and sheriff's offices, but bodycam footage of a cop pulling over the sheriff for speeding, who proceeds to chew him out for the audacity is something footage was shared by the local Fox news station in Oklahoma City as an OKCPD motorcycle officer first clocks a white Chevy Tahoe going 58 mph in a 45 zone, then pulls it over. As he officer approaches the driver's window, he realizes the driver is Sheriff Chris West of Canadian County. Apparently, Sheriff West has a reputation for being a bit of a jerk. Immediately, the officer tells the sheriff his intention is to just write him a warning. But it's obviously the sheriff is miffed at this. When the motorcycle cop returns with the written warning, that's when Sheriff West says something about when he was a state trooper, he 'never did this,' referring to 'when (he) stopped cops.' While the audio isn't clear, it sounds like the sheriff says he didn't even issue a warning to fellow law enforcement as 'a professional courtesy.' A lot of people don't like that because it's the rules for thee, but not for me mentality, a double standard that cops don't have to obey the same laws as everyone else. After all, we can guarantee if we were caught doing 58 in a 45 mph zone, we'd just get a ticket, not a warning. Yet the sheriff is incensed that he gets a warning, which comes with zero consequence. Is he just insulted that he instead isn't congratulated, given a cookie, or told he's doing a great job? In response to the little temper tantrum the officer is subjected to, he tells he sheriff he could 'just not speed' and there would be no problem. That's when Sheriff West says he isn't going to contact OKCPD's chief to complain, which could be taken as a veiled threat. The officer responds to that, telling the sheriff, 'You're as big of a jerk as I heard you are.' Apparently, the guy's reputation precedes him. Watch the entire bodycam footage for yourself here.
