Anchorage Police Release Full, Unedited Video of Fatal Shooting of Kristopher Handy

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) – Two weeks after releasing edited and annotated versions of police body and dashboard camera footage from the fatal shooting of 34-year-old Kristopher Handy in May, the Anchorage Police Department released raw video of the entire incident Thursday afternoon.

The only changes to the raw video, according to APD, were the blurring of Handy's body after he was shot, as well as some faces of innocent people, “to maintain privacy and safety.”

“Otherwise they are unprocessed,” the police wrote in their statement.

Police initially said they responded to a domestic violence call in the early hours of May 13 when Handy emerged from the apartment with the flashing lights of a patrol car.

In a previously released surveillance video provided to Alaska's News Source, Handy is seen with a long gun pointed to his right side. He does not appear to raise the weapon in the video.

At least ten shots were heard before Handy immediately collapsed to the ground, where his body remained for several hours, according to neighbors. Handy died at the scene.

In the months since the shooting, community members and organizations have called for the release of police bodycam footage as part of an effort for transparency.

Last month, the Justice Department said the four Anchorage police officers who fired their weapons – Sergeant Noel Senoran, Officer Jacob Jones, Officer Jacob Ostolaza and Officer James Stineman – were “lawfully justified” in shooting and killing Handy, according to a review by the Office of Special Prosecutions.

The nine videos released by the police show the camera worn on each officer's body.

Warning: Footage released by the Anchorage Police Department contains graphic elements that some viewers may find disturbing.
