Portland Police Release Body Camera Video

Portland Police have released officer body camera video of a shooting that happened August 24th.

It's the first time since officers started wearing body cameras that they've been used for an officer involved shooting investigation.

52-year-old Robert Seeger was armed with a gun, knife and a hammer. He ran toward officers, hid behind cars, and acted erratically. The video shows officers tried to get Seeger to surrender.
