The footage shows the security guard appearing to block the exit of the store as Porter approaches with a knife in his right hand. Porter points the knife at the neck of the guard repeatedly as he makes his way out of the store.The second video from a camera on Government Square shows Porter crossing the street. As a police cruiser approaches, Porter turns around and walks directly toward the driver's side door. As the Porter reaches the now open door with what appears to be a knife in his hand, officer Anthony Brucato appears to open fire. Porter enters the driver side door on top of the Brucato, a 25-year veteran of the department. Officer Patrick Galligan circles the car and pulls Porter out onto the sidewalk.The officer “was forced to defend himself,” Isaac said during the press conference.
