This compilation of security and police camera footage depicts a chaotic physical conflict at a Detroit venue, where a family has gathered for a funeral observance. The altercation escalates to a gunfight, and police officers respond. Given the nature of what transpires, viewer discretion is advised.

After an introductory playback of 911/ Dispatch traffic, security footage outside the venue shows Subject A drawing and firing a handgun. At least two others are shown downed, but only one person was reported actually shot, as we will see. It’s likely that they are supine as result of the brawling. At 01:35, we see a responding cruiser’s perspective as Subject A confronts Subject B. As the suspect fires his weapon, the officers exit their vehicle and pursue him on foot. At 01:57, the POV switches to the cop in the driver’s seat. He fires at Subject A an approximate four times. The passenger officer’s camera is shown at 02:36. As the first officer engages Subject A, she comes around the far side of a parked SUV and detains Subject B.
