New video shows the moment a Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office deputy opened fire on a man<\/a> who authorities said was armed and had fled from a traffic stop before crashing in West Little River back in February.<\/p>\n

The incident happened back on Feb. 24 when the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office said its robbery intervention team attempted to stop a vehicle in the area of Northwest 17th Avenue and Northwest 71st Street.<\/p>\n

The vehicle took off, and crashed into another car on Northwest 87th Street, authorities said.<\/p>\n

As deputies approached the vehicle, the suspect, later identified as 23-year-old William Paulemon, got out of the vehicle armed, authorities said.<\/p>\n

That’s when a deputy opened fire from inside his sheriff’s office vehicle.<\/p>\n

In the body camera footage released by the sheriff’s office on Monday, there was no audio from the moment the deputy opened fire but he’s heard speaking on the radio afterwards.<\/p>\n

“Shot fired, shots fired,” the deputy said. “Shots fired, he has a gun.”<\/p>\n

Paulemon was shot in his “lower extremities” and was hospitalized.<\/p>\n

The woman who was driving the other vehicle was uninjured. No deputies were hurt.<\/p>\n

Neighbor Vincient Miles says he was inside his home and heard a crash and gunshots.<\/p>\n

“I heard it crash through my fence and once it crashed through my fence I heard it hit the house,” he said.<\/p>\n

Miles went outside and said he saw a car that almost hit his house.<\/p>\n

“I said ‘thank you Lord, the air conditioning system is gone but the house is safe,'” Miles said.<\/p>\n

He said he checked on a woman who was inside the car, the driver who detectives said Paulemon hit.<\/p>\n

“She was a little shaken, but she told me ‘I’m your neighbor.’ I said ‘thank you for not hitting my house.’ She said ‘I was not trying to hit your house, I didn’t even mean to do this.’ I said ‘are you okay?’ She said ‘I’m fine,'” Miles said.<\/p>\n

Investigators said Paulemon had one gun in his hand and another in his waistband.<\/p>\n

Paulemon faces charges including attempted second-degree murder of a law enforcement officer, using or displaying a firearm while committing a felony, fleeing or eluding, leaving the scene of an accident with property damage and reckless driving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New video shows the moment a Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office deputy opened fire on a man who authorities said…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":250453,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[1009,225,227,226,373],"class_list":{"0":"post-250452","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-hialeah","8":"tag-caught-on-camera","9":"tag-hialeah","10":"tag-hialeah-headlines","11":"tag-hialeah-news","12":"tag-miami-dade-county"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250452","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=250452"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250452\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/250453"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=250452"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=250452"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=250452"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
