Longview, TX – Bodycam footage captured the moment that an armed robbery suspect jumped out of a stolen vehicle and pointed a handgun at police (video below).
The incident occurred outside an apartment complex at 1600 Pine Tree Road on Aug. 7, according to a custodial death report compiled by the Texas Attorney General’s Office.
Longview police had received a report of a trespassing call at another location, and noted that the vehicle involved in that incident had been reported as stolen in an aggravated robbery incident on Aug. 2.
When Longview Police Officer John Collier and Officer Jason Kelley spotted the suspect vehicle at the apartment complex, they stopped to see if it was occupied, according to the report.
The driver, later identified as 18-year-old Detravian Allison, stepped out of the car and refused to comply with the officers’ verbal commands, the attorney general’s office said. He was holding a handgun in his right hand, bodycam footage showed.
“Get on the ground right now,” one officer told him, just as Allison pointed the firearm at him.
The two officers immediately opened fire, hitting Allison four times, KYTX reported. The gunman collapsed onto the ground, dropping his weapon, bodycam footage showed.

1. I'm not brave enough to be a police officer.
2. How come some people cannot learn: if you obey police commands, you will live another day?
