James Boyd Taser Videos

James Boyd was shot March 16, 2014. Police Chief Gorden Eden said officers approached Boyd, who was sleeping, to speak to him about illegally camping in an open space. Authorities said Boyd began arguing with officers for more than three hours before the fatal shooting. The video released by the department shows officers yelling at Boyd to "get on the ground" moments before he's shot and killed.
