Authorities on Wed., Aug. 9, released body camera footage of the arrest of two homicide suspects, during which one of the suspects was shot in the leg.

The arrest and subsequent shooting happened on Wed., July 28 near the intersection of Allen Toussaint Boulevard and Painters Street.

The suspects, Jessie Carter, 31, and Desmon Henry, 30, are accused in a double shooting that happened two hours earlier about two miles away on Ulloa Street in Mid City. In that shooting, police say Markeisha Hunter, 30, was fatally shot and a second man was rushed to the hospital.

Police tracked the suspects in a white GMC Yukon to Gentilly.

As police chased down Henry, an officer’s gun fired, striking him in the knee.

“This was an unintentional shooting by the officer after the collision. His weapon went off,” said Deputy NOPD Supt. Hans Ganthier.
