One year since shooting death of Eric Harris

Posted

Saturday marks one year since a Tulsa County reserve deputy shot and killed Eric Harris during a sting operation. 

New video released Friday shows that same reserve deputy, Robert Bates, involved in another incident just weeks before Harris' death.

In the video, we see Bates draw both a taser and a gun on a handcuffed suspect. His attorney, Clark Brewster, says Bates only followed orders in that incident.

The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office released a statement Friday, saying there is no use of force shown in the video.
