Shocking body cam video captured the moment a Colorado cop tased a fleeing man after a traffic stop — who then fell across the lanes of a busy highway, where he was fatally struck by a passing SUV.
Deputy Lorenzo Lujan stopped Brent Allen Thompson, 28, about 9 p.m. Feb. 18 near a hotel off Interstate 25 in Larimer County when he noticed that his Ford Fusion had expired tags, 9 News reported.
But Thompson got onto northbound I-25 and Lujan followed him until the driver stopped near the Mountain Vista Drive exit, according to the outlet, which cited a letter by District Attorney Gordon McLaughlin.
Thompson, of Loveland, identified himself as “Jacob Jones,” but the deputy – who was joined by a partner at the scene — quickly discovered that he gave a fake name.
The driver insisted that he had not lied but bolted when told he was under arrest – running down an embankment toward the highway, the newly released video shows.
“Stop or you're gonna get Tased! Stop!” Lujan shouts.
He then fires the weapn after Thompson jumps a guardrail and collapses along the road
“S—! S—!” the deputy exclaims as the oncoming SUV slams into Thompson.
