A new­ly released video cap­tur­ing the police shoot­ing death of a New Jersey man shows an offi­cer warn­ing the sus­pect not to move or he’ll be “f — ing dead” before the man steps out of his car .Jerame C. Reid, 36, is seen exit­ing the vehi­cle with his hands raised at shoul­der height when a Bridgeton police offi­cer, who rec­og­nizes Reid by name, fired at least six times. Reid’s vio­lent Dec. 30 death began as a rou­tine traf­fic stop before Officer Braheme Days calls to his part­ner, Roger Worley, “We’ve got a gun in this glove com­part­ment!” “Don’t you f — ing move,” Days warns to Reid and the dri­ver, Leroy Tutt. “I’m telling you I’m gonna shoot you. You’re gonna be f — ing dead.” Tutt obe­di­ent­ly holds both hands out of his open win­dow while Days express­es the con­tin­u­ing issue with Reid. “Hey Jerome, you reach for some­thing you’re going to be f — ing dead,” Days warns. “I’m telling you I’m gonna shoot you. You’re gonna be f — ing dead.”

Records show Days was involved in Reid’s arrest last year on charges of drug pos­ses­sion and obstruc­tion. Reid also spent about 13 years in prison for shoot­ing at New Jersey State Police troop­ers when he was a teen. “I ain’t got no rea­son to reach for noth­ing, bro, I ain’t got no rea­son to reach for noth­ing,” Reid is heard respond­ing as Days con­tin­ues to yell to his part­ner that Reid is reach­ing for some­thing. “I’m get­ting out and get­ting on the ground,” Days is heard telling the offi­cer before indeed open­ing the car door and step­ping out. Days, while shout­ing, takes sev­er­al steps back before open­ing fire upon Reid as he stands with two hands — appear­ing emp­ty — in the air. The dis­turb­ing video was viewed as a hor­ror flick to Reid’s wife, who watched it for the first time Tuesday after its release through open records requests, her attor­ney told NJ​.com.

“It’s trau­mat­ic,” Philadelphia-based attor­ney Conrad J. Benedetto told the paper “She is extreme­ly upset. To see some­one that close to you, it is a pow­er­ful thing. There is a lot of shock val­ue to it.” The Bridgeton Police Department released a state­ment Tuesday express­ing it was upset over the video’s release, call­ing it unpro­fes­sion­al and uncom­pas­sion­ate “out of respect for the fam­i­ly.” “Since this remains a crim­i­nal inves­ti­ga­tion being con­duct­ed by the Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office with assis­tance from the New Jersey State Police the admin­is­tra­tion of the Bridgeton Police Dept. will refrain from any fur­ther com­ment oth­er than that it ful­ly sup­ports the offi­cers involved as well as the legal process this inci­dent is sub­ject to,” it added. Both offi­cers have been placed on leave while the Cumberland County pros­e­cu­tor’s office investigates.
