Michael Clark put away what authorities called a “club-like object” within seconds of two Colorado police officers confronting him at his apartment on the night of May 30, according to bodycam video released Friday to NBC News.
The 75-year-old Clark, per the video provided by his attorney Sarah Schielke, was shirtless and clad only in boxers. He was also unarmed, police said. Seconds later, former Idaho Springs Police Officer Nicholas Hanning shoots Clark with a stun gun, causing him to fall backward and hit his head. Hanning and his partner, Ellie Summers, then drag an unconscious Clark by his legs and arms outside of his apartment while they handcuff him.
Schielke released partially blurred bodycam footage this week because she said the district attorney has not done so. A judge released bodycam footage to Clark, she said Thursday.
