\n

A Phoenix police officer fatally shot a gun-wielding father who was holding his child in a dramatic encounter that was caught on body camera footage.<\/p>\n

The officer can be heard pleading with 37-year-old Paul Bolden to put the child down before shooting him outside a hotel on Jan. 9 in video released Monday by the Phoenix Police Department<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Police responded to the scene after Bolden\u2019s girlfriend called 911 reporting he was firing a gun while holding the child.<\/p>\n

\u201c[He] just took my baby, he has a gun, he\u2019s loaded, he took the baby. He\u2019s trying to kill him, he\u2019s shooting, he fired,\u201d the frantic mother told 911 dispatchers, according to audio of the call released Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe got my son, he stole my son.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before police arrived, Bolden held a driver at gunpoint, according to another 911 caller.<\/p>\n

When cops arrived at the scene, Bolden refused their orders to drop the gun, police said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has a kid hostage right now,\u201d one officer radios in, according to the footage. \u201cHe has a gun, he has made one gunshot already,\u201d the officer continues.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need more units, block off all traffic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bolden then points the gun at his child and others, police said, leading the officer with a rifle to open fire. <\/p>\n

The shot was fired from behind the door of a police SUV, which obstructed the officer\u2019s body camera.<\/p>\n

After firing, an officer decides to run and grab the crying baby from the ground.<\/p>\n

\u201cHold on, hold on, hold on,\u201d one officer can be heard saying.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, f\u2013k it, get the kid! Get the kid!\u201danother responds.<\/p>\n

Bolden was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
