Recording shows police officer Michael Slager warning Scott to stay in the car after he was pulled over for a failed brake light


Video footage showing Walter Scott fleeing a traffic stop minutes before he wasshot dead by police officer Michael Slager has been released by authorities in South Carolina.


The recording shows Scott, 50, making a run from his Mercedes-Benz after being warned to stay in the vehicle by Slager, who had stopped him for a broken tail light in North Charleston last Saturday morning.
The footage, recorded by a camera on the dashboard of Slager’s patrol car, was released by state investigators carrying out an inquiry into Scott’s death. Slager, 33, was charged with murder after separate video showed the officer shot Scott as he ran away.
The new recording shows Slager pulling Scott over and speaking with him at the driver’s window, before returning to his patrol car. Scott opened his driver’s door but returned inside after an order from Slager. However, seconds later Scott opened the door again and dashed.
Out of view of the dashboard camera, Slager chased Scott on foot. The pair came to a stop and struggled on the ground after the officer fired his Taser at Scott, according to a passerby who then began filming on his cellphone.
Slager was then recorded shooting Scott eight times in the back as he ran.

TRANSCRIPT:

Slager: “Licence, registration and insurance card. What’s that?”
Scott: “[Inaudible] I’ve got my licence.”
Slager: “OK, let’s start with your licence. The reason for the stop is your third brake light is out.”
Scott: “[Inaudible].”
Slager: “OK.”
Scott: “I don’t have [inaudible], I just bought the car from my neighbor.”
Slager: “Uh-huh.”
Scott: “And he still has the insurance [inaudible] for the car.”
Slager: “Do you have insurance on the car?”
Scott: “No, I don’t have insurance on the car – he has it.”
Slager: “OK, well if you don’t have insurance on the car since you bought it, you don’t have insurance.”
Scott: “I haven’t bought it yet. I’m saying I’ve got to do that on Monday. [Inaudible] me drive the car, ’cause my car is down. I can call him.”
Slager: “Oh, OK. Right. Let me have your driver’s licence … So you don’t have any paperwork in the glovebox?”
Scott: “No, sir.”
Slager: “No registration in there? No insurance?”
Scott: “No, he has all that stuff.”
Slager: “OK. But you’re buying the car?”
Scott: “Yes, sir.”
Slager: “Did you already buy it?”
Scott: “No, not yet. I’m about to buy it Monday.”
Slager: “’Cause just a minute ago you told me you’d bought it, and you’re saying [inaudible] Monday.”
Scott: “I’m sorry about that. I’m gonna [inaudible] on Monday.
Slager: “Alright, I’ll be right back with you.”
Slager returns to his patrol car. About 30 seconds later, Scott opens his driver’s door and steps out momentarily.
Slager: “You have to stay in the car.”
Less than 20 seconds later, Scott opens his driver’s door again and runs away.
