video shows BART Police Officer Joseph Mateu responding to gunshots near the station on Jan. 3 and opening fire on two men involved in an altercation at the corner of 7th and Chester streets.

After repeatedly shouting, “Let me see you hands!” at the struggling men, Mateu fires three shots from less than 10 feet.

The shooting is the subject of a legal claim filed last week by the family of Sahleem Tindle, whom Mateu fatally wounded. The legal claim acknowledges that Tindle had been armed and had shot a second, unidentified man before Mateu ran to the scene.
