In the recently released bodycam, the suspect, Marvin Martin, is seen walking the sidewalk, and a bystander who’s walking towards him turns in the opposite direction after seeing Martin with a firearm.

OPD officers and Orange County deputies were called to the location after receiving multiple calls about a man dressed in all black holding a gun along the road, OPD said.

Martin ignored commands and kept walking toward the officer, where he was later shot by the officer on the scene.
