DPS Releases Schaston Hodge Video. It shows a short pursuit after state troopers try to pull over Hodge’s car for failing to signal, and before Hodge turns into his grandmother’s driveway and bolts for the door with a gun in his hand. DPS has said he fired that gun, although it’s difficult to tell exactly when that happens in the two body cam videos. Hodge was shot 16 times. It happens very quickly, and then you see the troopers providing medical attention. Big ups to the DMN’s Cassandra Jaramillo for staying on this and getting some answers.
