In the partial video released by police, Augustus appears to have a holstered handgun at his side. In the video, after officers have walked up, including one who appears to be speaking to him, Augustus is seen opening his wallet — then moves his hand toward his holster — just before three other officers swiftly surround him with one appearing to grab at his wrist. Augustus then twists away and darts between two parked cars. As he is fleeing, his arm appears to move toward the holstered gun.
