Ohio police release video of deadly shooting

US police have released video of a chase in Akron, Ohio, which ended in a black man being shot dead, hit more than 60 times by pursuing officers.

Police say they believe Jayland Walker, 25, opened fire first and officers feared for their lives during the night-time traffic stop on 27 June.

Mr Walker was not armed when he ran away from his car but police say a pistol was later found inside it.

To cops, you're a threat if you're coming toward them and you're a threat if you're running away. it's like there's no circumstances in which they aren't terrified.
