Hill, 30, was detained as he drove to Sunday's home game between the Dolphins and the Jacksonville Jaguars at the Hard Rock Stadium. "In our commitment to transparency and maintaining public trust, we are releasing the body-worn camera footage related to the recent incident involving Tyreek Hill," Miami-Dade Police Department director Stephanie Daniels said in a statement on Monday.
"I am going to get you out of the car. As a matter of fact, get out of the car," an officer tells Hill, while another officer threatens to break the car's window. When Hill's Miami team-mate Calais Campbell arrives on the scene, he is also handcuffed. Campbell was later released. "It is also a reminder that not every situation like this ends in peace, as we are grateful this one did. 'What if I wasn't Tyreek Hill?' is a question that will carry with resounding impact.”
