The Cranston Police Department released bodycam footage on Friday that shows the interaction that led to one of its officers shooting at a moving vehicle on Sunday.
Police claim Officer Kayleigh Cooper approached the vehicle on Reservoir Avenue after a shoplifting report from Garden City Center on Sunday.

When he doesn’t, she is seen opening the door.
Inside is a man in the driver’s seat and a woman on the passenger side.
The man asked the officer “What are you doing? What is this about?”
Officer Cooper repeated her order for him to get out of the car.
The driver continued to question the officer in the video.
“What are you doing?” he asked her while she continued her order from him to exit the car.
