Sandy police released body and dashboard camera video of a fatal shooting involving one of its officers.

SANDY — "Hey Dylan, let me see your hands, man. Dylan, let me see your hands."

In a recording of the 911 call made by Murphy's brother that was also released Friday, the brother says Murphy had attempted suicide earlier that evening. He drove Murphy to a local hospital, but he refused to get out of the car, the brother told dispatchers. He took his brother back home where he thought he was going to bed.Severson said Friday he later saw the injuries on Murphy's arm and called them "some of the worst self-inflicted wounds I've seen.

"He's got his right hand in his jacket, I can't see anything. He's just keeping it really tight," he tells dispatchers. Both body camera and dashcam videos show Murphy got within 2 to 3 feet of the officer before the officer fired three rounds. The officer then trips and falls to the ground on his back while backpedaling. Murphy, however, remains on his feet. It is unclear in the video whether he is actually hit or injured.

The officer tells dispatchers "shots fired" and yells at Murphy to show his hands as he lies on his stomach. In the video, Murphy initially appears to comply with the officer's commands. But he soon starts to slowly get up.A little less than a minute after he was shot, Murphy is able to stand up once again. This time, both his hands are visible. He clinches both hands into fists, but does not appear in the video to be holding anything.
