WARNING: DISTRESSING CONTENT. A distressing video has emerged showing the moment SWAT team officers in North Carolina repeatedly shot an unarmed man accused of being a hostage-taker.
Jason Kloepfer, 41, released the video capturing his Dec. 13 shooting on his Facebook page Friday, along with graphic photos showing his injuries.
According to a press release that was put out by the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office last month, deputies responded to Kloepfer’s mobile home on Upper Bear Paw Road at around 11 p.m. after getting a 911 call of shots fired.
