Stephon Clark Police Body Camera - Helicopter Night Vision - March 18, 2018 - Police camera video and 911 call for Stephon Clark incident. I think I edited together all the Important Information without any extra fluff

A car break-in led to a 911 call
Police said they were dispatched to an address in Sacramento at 9:13 p.m.
"The caller stated that the male subject had broken car windows and was now hiding in a backyard," the report said. "The caller described the subject as a male ... wearing a black hoodie and dark pants."
Sacramento Police officers arrived at the scene five minutes later. Detectives canvassed the neighborhood and saw at least three vehicles with damage believed to have been caused by the suspect, the report said.
In addition, a residence had a sliding glass door shattered and deputies in a law enforcement helicopter saw the suspect break the door and jump the fence into another property, where the shooting happened, according to the report.

Police believed an 'object' was aimed at them
Before the shooting, the officers pursuing the suspect said they saw him face them and "advance forward with his arms extended and holding an object in his hands," the report said. At the time, the officers believed the suspect was pointing a firearm at them.
"When I come around the corner ... I left cover and I look and I see that same subject with his hoodie and sweatshirt pulled up and his arms pointed out extended like this," Terrence Mercadal told detectives hours after he and Jared Robinet shot Clark. To show Clark's position, Mercadal, who was seated, extended both arms in front of him at chest level and appeared to take a shooting position, according to the report.
"... At which time I looked and based on the light coming off of ... my tactical light -- it appeared I thought that he had already shot at me because I saw what I believed to be a metallic reflection or muzzle flash -- something coming at me," Mercadal said. "I was scared. I thought that he had shot at me. I think I remember yelling, 'Gun.'"
