The LPD video begins with a recorded message from Chief Ellery Sosebee.

After Sosebee’s message, the video plays the original 911 call reporting shots fired in the area.

Then it shows body cam footage of an officer outside a home talking to a person, saying they have a warrant. The officer asked the man if he was armed and then they eventually took cover behind several cars.

Over the course of the video, you hear several shots being periodically fired. Dash cam video shows a police car being hit with bullets twice. Police said the shots were being fired by Robinson.

In an on-screen message, Lansing police said officers at the scene then called for the department’s special tactical and rescue team to help negotiate and provide additional resources.

Police said officers tried negotiating with Robinson to get him to surrender and during those negotiations, several more shots were fired towards officers.
