Inn's partner heard the gunshots and saw the man with a gun standing over the injured officer. The suspect is seen shooting at the second officer, who returns fire from his patrol car.



Then, the suspect brings out his 8-year-old son and starts strangling him, and the officer is heard yelling "Let the kid go."



Someone in the neighborhood was able to tackle the man and freed the little boy. The second officer then fired several rounds, striking the suspect.



Despite performing life-saving measures, both the suspect and the 30-year-old officer died at the hospital.
