Minutes after an 18-year-old gunman allegedly shot a woman at a Nashville park, he was caught on video opening fire on an approaching police car.

The Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) released video footage taken from Officer Jeff Lubey’s patrol car Wednesday night as Emmanual Orr, 18, realized authorities had spotted him and started shooting.
