The Daytona Beach Police Department released bodycam footage Thursday of a shooting in Daytona Beach that left three man dead.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - The Daytona Beach Police Department released the body camera video of Wednesday morning's deadly triple shooting in Daytona Beach.
The suspect, Jerome Anderson, called 911 himself saying he'd shot someone near the intersection of MLK and Park Drive around 6:30 a.m, police said. The 38-year-old man is accused of shooting and killing three people: Antoine Melvin, 43; John Burch, 65; and Patrick Lassiter, 36.
He was arrested on three counts of first-degree premeditated murder and possession of weapon-ammo by a convicted felon.
The bodycam video released Thursday shows that arrest.
In the 38-second video, a police officer is seen approaching Anderson, who is lying on the front lawn of a home near the intersection of MLK and Park Drive at 6:33 a.m.
"Get on your back. Get on your back," the officer is heard saying to Anderson, who flips over and puts his hands behind his back.
The officer then places handcuffs on the suspect.
