LOUISIANA STATE POLICE HAVE TAKEN OVER THE INVESTIGATION INTO THE DEADLY POLICE SHOOTING OF ALONZO BAGLEY, A 43-YEAR-OLD BLACK MAN
THIS, AS PERSONNEL RECORDS SHOW THE OFFICER WHO KILLED BAGLEY HAD BEEN DISCIPLINED MULTIPLE TIMES PRIOR TO THE SHOOTING
C-N-N'S RYAN YOUNG HAS THE LATEST
--REPORTER PKG-AS FOLLOWS--
nats of 911 call
JUST BEFORE 11PM ON FEBRUARY THIRD, A 911 DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE CALL TURNS INTO A DEADLY FOOT CHASE
OFFICER ALEXANDER TYLER RUNS AFTER 43-YEAR-OLD ALONZO BAGLEY AFTER HE JUMPED FROM A SECOND FLOOR APARTMENT BALCONY
Nats He went that way, Tyler
ABOUT FIVE SECONDS LATER --
Nats
“Alonzo Oh, no, no (moaning)
Oh Gosh, you shot me
Officer dispatch, send E M S right now shots fired! Shots fired!”
FOR THE NEXT TWO MINUTES THE OFFICERS PLEAD WITH MR BAGLEY TO KEEP BREATHING
Nats “C'mon dude, stay with me stay with me”
MR BAGLEY STOPS BREATHING--- DYING A SHORT TIME LATER AT THE HOSPITAL
THE LOUISIANA STATE POLICE TOOK OVER THE INVESTIGATION INTO THE SHOOTING AND RECOMMENDED INVOLUNTARY HOMICIDE CHARGES AGAINST TYLER, WHO FIRED THE SHOT
THE 23-YEAR-OLD IS CURRENTLY OUT ON BOND AND PAID ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE FROM THE DEPARTMENT
IN EARLY FEBRUARY, CNN ASKED THE SHREVEPORT POLICE CHIEF, WAYNE SMITH, IF OFFICER TYLER HAD PRIOR DISCIPLINARY ISSUES…
Chief Wayne Smith \ Shreveport Police Department: “Disciplinary wise I would not say he has been a disciplinary issue, or at least not to the point where things would rise on our radar”
BUT THE OFFICER'S PERSONNEL FILE TELLS A DIFFERENT STORY
CNN OBTAINED MORE THAN **450 PAGES AS WELL AS **9 VIDEOS AND 4 AUDIO FILES OF OFFICER TYLER’S EMPLOYMENT RECORD WITH THE SHREVEPORT POLICE DEPARTMENT THROUGH AN OPEN RECORDS REQUEST
IN THAT, ONE LETTER OF COMMENDATION IN APRIL OF TWO THOUSAND TWENTY-TWO BUT---
IN JUST 21 MONTHS ON THE JOB, OFFICER TYLER HAS ALREADY SERVED 30 DAYS OF SUSPENSION AND PREVIOUSLY FACED THREE DISCIPLINARY EVENTS—
Ryan Young: “Do think officer Tyler should still be on the police force?”
Ron Haley \ Attorney for Family: “Absolutely not Officer Tyler should not have been on the police force the day he killed our client, Alonzo Bagley I think we have seen an officer that has an intentional reckless behavior”
AMONG THOSE DISCIPLINARY EVENTS—
Nats “Get on the ground - says, don’t move –arms out”
IN MARCH TWO THOUSAND TWENTY-TWO-- A WOMAN COMPLAINED THAT TYLER AND SIX OFFICERS ILLEGALLY DETAINED MINORS AND QUESTIONED THEM WITHOUT ADULTS PRESENT, ALSO WHILE SEARCHING A HOUSE WITHOUT A WARRANT SHREVEPORT POLICE DEPARTMENT CLEARED TYLER AND THE OTHER OFFICERS OF WRONGDOING IN THAT CASE
IN JULY TWO THOUSAND TWENTY-TWO SHREVEPORT POLICE INTERNAL AFFAIRS WANTED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS VIDEO SHOWING TYLER’S PATROL CAR EXCEEDING SPEEDS OF 130 MPH
TYLER SAYS HE TRIED PULLING OVER A CAR FOR A MODIFIED EXHAUST-- “A MINOR TRAFFIC VIOLATION”
Nats
THE PERSONNEL FILE NOTES HE DID NOT HAVE A DESCRIPTION OF THE SUSPECTS -- AND TYLER DIDNT KNOW WHO HE WAS CHASING
AS PART OF THE DEPARTMENT'S INVESTIGATION INTO TYLER’S HANDING OF THE INCIDENT-- HE WAS INTERVIEWED BY INTERNAL AFFAIRS
Nats
Sgt Lang: “So it was basically a smooth pursuit, it was just excessive, a little excessive for speed”
Tyler: “Way too fast, yeah”
THE DEPARTMENT FOUND THAT TYLER VIOLATED DEPARTMENT POLICY DURING THAT PURSUIT
AND THEN THERE’S THIS – ONE MONTH AFTER THE PURSUIT, INVESTIGATORS SAY OFFICERS WERE RACING EACH OTHER FOR FUN WHEN THIS HAPPENED --
Nats
YOU CAN SEE A BLOODY, GROGGY, OFFICER TYLER BEING HELPED FROM HIS PATROL CAR
HE LAY’S FLAT -- AND THEN ANOTHER OFFICER COMES OVER TO HELP HIM
ACCORDING TO INVESTIGATORS -- OFFICER TYLER WAS DRIVING HIS PATROL CAR AT 60 MILES PER HOUR –IN A 35 MILES PER HOUR ZONE
HE HIT A CAR NEARLY HEAD ON
TWO PASSENGERS AND TYLER HAD TO BE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL
DURING THE REVIEW, INVESTIGATORS DETERMINED HE AND TWO OTHER OFFICERS MISUSED THEIR RADAR GUNS TO CLOCK EACH OTHERS’ SPEEDS WHILE RACING DOWN THE ROAD AN ACCUSATION THEY ALL DENIED TO INTERNAL AFFAIRS
TYLER WAS SUSPENDED FOR 15 DAYS
HIS ATTORNEY DOESN’T BELIEVE THESE PAST INCIDENTS SHOULD HAVE ANY IMPACT ON THE PRESENT CASE
Dhu Thompson \ Attorney for Alexander Tyler: “It is an unfortunate situation for the Bagley family It is an unfortunate situation for officer Tyler It is an unfortunate situation for the city of Shreveport and the police department”
CITY ACTIVISTS AND THE BAGLEY FAMILY ATTORNEY BELIEVE *MORE* OVERSIGHT IS NEEDED TO KEEP EYES ON THIS SMALL POLICE DEPARTMENT AMID VIOLENT CRIME CONCERNS
Ron Haley \ Attorney for Family: “They absolutely have dropped the ball as related to discipline and trying to curtail this behavior”
