Body camera video released in fatal shooting of man who tried to carjack undercover LMPD officer
Kentucky State Police have released officer body camera video of the fatal police shooting in the Portland neighborhood earlier this month.
On June 19, Mark Jaggers Jr., 21, was shot and killed by an undercover officer with the Louisville Metro Police Department’s Fugitive Unit.
Officer Matthew Hayden was conducting surveillance of a home for a separate case in an alley near Griffiths Avenue and North 22nd Street around 1:30 p.m.
The body camera footage shows Jaggers, who is wearing a black mask, running up to the undercover officer and opening the driver’s side door. He then points a handgun inside the car.
Hayden, a 10-year veteran with LMPD, immediately draws his gun and fires several shots at Jaggers, who then falls to the ground.
The video then shows Hayden waiting for backup to arrive, and officers begin performing CPR and other life-saving measures on Jaggers.
