Now video emerges showing off-duty NYPD cop shoot black man within seconds of road rage row breaking

Now video emerges showing off-duty NYPD cop shoot black man within seconds of road rage row breaking out - CONTRADICTING witness who said father 'beat the s***' out of officer


Small can be seen reeling back before staggering across the road and falling down between two cars
In the footage, taken from a surveillance camera overlooking the scene, Small can be seen climbing out of his car and walking toward Isaac, who is sitting in his car.
A split second after bending down to look in the window, Small stumbles backward, staggering across the road before collapsing between two parked vehicles.
Another car, sitting parallel to Isaac, speeds off across the junction while pedestrians on the sidewalk run up the street.


____!!



Roger Wareham, lawyer for the Small family, said the footage 'clearly demonstrates the cop lied', adding that Isaac looks down at Small's body 'as if he had just stepped on a roach.'
Wareham told the New York Daily News: 'If the cop's story is obviously false, why haven't they arrested him?'
Isaacs had just finished his shift and was on his way home in his own car when the attack happened.
Small was pronounced dead at the scene but his body remained on the street covered in a plastic sheet for around four hours after the shooting.

An off-duty NYPD cop waited exactly one second before gunning down another driver in a Brooklyn road rage incident on Monday.

Exclusive video obtained by The Post shows the moment that Officer Wayne Isaacs fired two shots through his car window at Delrawn Small, who collapsed and died in the street.

The NYPD and the Attorney General’s office are investigating the shooting, which the victim’s family said is a clear case of excessive force.


The footage, captured at the intersection of Atlantic Avenue and Bradford Street just after midnight, shows Small, 37, cross two lanes of traffic to reach Isaacs’ car.

He barely has time to look the cop in the eye or even utter a word before Isaacs opens fire, causing him to stagger backward.

He stumbles to the ground, gets up for a moment — and then collapses again for good.

Isaacs, meanwhile, lurches his car forward a few feet before slamming on the brakes and getting out. He appears to tuck the gun into his waistband as he walks over toward Small.

Isaacs looks in the direction of the dying man, pausing for a few moments near his body, before returning to his vehicle.

He is then seen pacing around and talking on the phone. Sources have said he called 911.

They don't have to obey the law, because they ARE the law.
Often times they are the judge, jury, and executioner as well.
