Around 10:25 p.m. on July 13, Ramirez was in a silver Cadillac with three other occupants, all wearing ski masks. Sgt. Michael Pounds began to follow them. The video shows Ramirez get out of the Cadillac and run toward the driver's-side door of Pounds' unmarked vehicle. Immediately, Pounds fires through the window, shooting Ramirez in the chest. Ramirez falls to the ground, crawls away and collapses in the street.
Police said in a July 18 statement that two passengers exited the Cadillac and approached Pounds' vehicle from either side, but only Ramirez is visible in the video.
The family of Ricardo "Ricky" Ramirez Jr. plans to sue the city for wrongful death, demanding the state prosecutor to file criminal charges.
