EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: CBS13 obtains never-before-seen footage from the Mahany Park Shootout in Roseville
In response to CBS13's ongoing investigation into April's deadly Mahany park shooting in Roseville, the California Highway Patrol on Monday released never-before-seen cell phone, helicopter, and drone footage from that day.
Out of respect for the victims and their families, CBS Sacramento is choosing not to publish any images of the victims from that day.
For nine months, the CHP claimed this video didn't exist. CBS Sacramento was first to obtain nearly seven hours of police video from the day suspect Eric Abril allegedly shot an officer and two hostages at a Roseville park with spring break day campers nearby.
This is a short compilation of the never-before-seen video from last year's CHP-Mahaney Park shootout in Roseville.
The CHP chopper and drone video seem to begin after Jim MacEgan was shot. The video appears to show Abril using Patty MacEagan as a human shield and shooting her in the arm, before surrendering.
